@pinhman@mstdn.ca @gemlog@tilde.zone @crispius@mstdn.fname.ca @SnowyCA@social.vivaldi.net GM brought Hayek to America and published "The Road to Serfdom" as a comic book to make union-busting seem family-friendly. I'm not saying that "Austrian economics" started out as motivated reasoning, but it quickly became that. In any case, Hayek's general point about "temporary" crisis measures fossilizing into long-term practice turns out to be a lot more cogent and relevant than the specific kinds of measures he was worrying about.
