Idea power...Galambos told me...that "our society runs on the ideas of a few..." I'm scared! I fear the good guys that Galambos referred to have been replaced by lesser minds. Rousseau, Marx, Heilbronner, Samuelson, et al, seem to hold increasing sway even despite the disastrous applications of their prescriptions. Meanwhile, Smith, Ricardo, Bastiat, von Mises, Hayek, Miltie, et al, are ignored, their analysis ignored and largely unknown. Almost wish I could stick around a another century or two, watch this play out. Evidence implies that won't happen.
