"It is no crime to be ignorant of economics, which is, after all, a specialized discipline and one that most people consider to be a 'dismal science.' But it is totally irresponsible to have a loud and vociferous opinion on economic subjects while remaining in this state of ignorance."

– Murray Rothbard

What we said then: This isn’t a free market; it’s monetary central planning; it will all end badly. Study price theory!

What they said then: You’re wrong; you’re wrong; you’re wrong, you crazy extremist doomsayers. All other economists disagree with you.

What we say now: That wasn’t a free market, and that’s why it all ended badly. Stop interfering. Study price theory!

What they say now: No one saw this coming. Economists haven’t a clue. The free market has failed us. We need bigger government!
