And the right have Ayn Rand.

ITT: discuss why Rand sucked.

She writes shitty books.

>implying marx didn't pioneer sociology and historical realism

unlike rand, the shit he wrote could actually stand up to academic criticism

You mean except for all his economic theories. Man so much stupidity is hard to fathom.

Uh, Marxist economists still exist.

And most of them are dumb.

Ha-Joon Chang, for instance - who isn't a Marxist but certainly studied under one and has obviously been influenced - is one of the worst economists I've ever had the misfortune to read.

Central planning wasn't just killed, it was beaten up, bottled, cut and given a Chelsea grin by history. Let it rest.

as opposed to chicago school's flawless track record?

No school is flawless obviously. Chicago School just happens to be up there, particularly now with the rise of Scott Sumner.

Say what you want, it's still better than the Austrian School.

Marxism.


No thanks.
