“The Austrian Austrian economists I've tend to find are you know they are they are very very right in the ultimate long run. They're almost always right in the long run. Uh the challenge is is this that it's you know economics is not a science no matter what the economists want to tell you. It's a branch of moral philosophy, right?”
