Which school of economic thought do you most subscribe to?

[Anarchist420]

I'm pretty sure everyone here knows I subscribe to the Austrian School.

I've always thought it sucked that people get the classical/Chicago school confused with the Austrian one. History books teach that Hoover followed the Austrian School policies and that Keynesian policies where necessary to correct it. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Prominent followers of the Chicago/classical school include Jack Kemp and Ronald Reagan.

Prominent followers of the Keynesian school include FDR and BHO. Herbert Hoover had Keynesian tendencies, but he did not favor going off the Gold Standard.

The Austrian School includes Steven Baker, Ron Paul, and Martin Van Buren. Warren G Harding had Austrian tendencies, although he was a protectionist and never mentioned getting rid of the Federal Reserve. Grover Cleveland had Austrian tendencies, but he supported an anti-trust suit as well as the ICC. John Tyler, Jackson, and Jefferson had Austrian tendencies.

This post shows what a dumbass I am even though almost everything in it is right.

I would have to look up what each school is and then decide which of them most closely matches my brainwashing in order to say since I wasn't lucky enough to have found a school at a young age to brainwash myself in a priori, or lucky enough to actually have studied deeply and for a lifetime so as to have reached a truly informed opinion. Like most folk, I am an expert economist and everything else, purely in my imagination. My self hatred of my own ignorance has caused me to lose any grace I might have been born with. I have become just another big fat egotistical fool who thinks he knows things, eh?

I'm pretty sure everyone here knows I subscribe to the Austrian School...

Judging from the general quality of your posts, I always assumed you subscribed to the pre-school.

Why don't you try responding to the criticisms of your posts in other threads before you start new ones.

OP, which website did you read this time?

I think Anarchist420 is making improvements though. He didn't call it the Austrianical school or the Chicag School. (Like Britannical and Democrat party.)
