I am not kidding. I could post a link to the thread, but this person may actually post on here. I doubt it, but I'm not sure. Personally, I think this person is full of crap. I disagree with virtually everything we discussed. I was not versed in the Austrian line of thought, but I understand that you do not want artificiality in the markets. Government

Oh, I understand the reasoning completely. It only makes sense to use propositional logic to deduce economic theory. I'm a math major, physics minor senior. How are the statistical tools broken?
