Abstract
‘Von’ Mises contemptuously asserted that the university ‘enterprise’ of economic political science held a ‘strong attraction to halfwits.’ It is, however, usual to presume that a ‘free’ market Professor of Economics has genuinely earned the educational qualifications that underpin their title. It is also unusual (and possibly praiseworthy) for a University Professor of Economics to have failed to gain university admission or to have failed their undergraduate degree in economics. But when pattern recognition (and thus pattern prediction) reveals a school-based portal, does this suggest that the Austrian business model aims to reduce the transaction costs of acquiring educational qualifications? According to the George Mason University Professor of Economics, Don Boudreaux (a Café Hayek blogger and one of Hayek’s ‘secondhand dealers in opinion’): ‘Scientific data undermine’ the ‘assertion’ that ‘Secondhand smoke kills!’ And according to the co-founder of the Mises Institute, Llewellyn Rockwell Jr., there was a final ‘free’ market solution to externalities: ‘anyone who is personally harmed, or his business damaged, by air pollution ought to be able to sue to stop it, and receive damages.’ But as his fellow, Mises Institute co-founder, Murray Rothbard, observed (when feeling helpless in the face of what he asserted were Charles Koch’s crimes): ‘How do you sue a billionaire?’ (Frontlines May 1981). Hayek encouraged his ‘secondhand dealers in opinion’ to use the ‘knowledge’ that externalities had been invented by a Soviet agent—despite knowing that this ‘knowledge’ had been promoted by a fraud. And ‘free’ market promoters openly express contempt for those they have colonised—when they think that only the ideologically correct are listening. This chapter suggests that we need a systematic study of the social origins and psychological predispositions of Austrian School recruits.

Boettke Jr. was an ‘outstanding’ tennis player, a ‘star’ basketball player in high school, and played for the US Army AirCorp team. He ‘started at guard’ for the varsity basketball team and was ‘number 1’ singles on the varsity tennis team at his high school from his freshman year on, and held a ‘world’ record in fishing. Boettke III played basketball in high school and one year at Bucknell University before a knee injury ended his career. His sister was an ‘outstanding gymnist [sic]’ at Trenton State College and a ‘very’ successful gymnastics coach in New Jersey. His nephew was a ‘standout’ high school soccer and basketball player and played one year of college basketball (at Ramapo College, NJ) before switching to volleyball where he ‘actually led the nation’ in blocks in his junior year and was nominated for ‘All-American honors’ in his senior year. http://econfaculty.gmu.edu/pboettke/sports.html.

‘In the second year of college, I took a course in economics … and I quite liked it.’ Shenoy (2003) took a B.A. from Gujarat University in 1963 (‘Economics major),’ where her ‘father was teaching,’ and which had copies of some ‘Mises books. I read them and was hooked … I eventually attended the LSE’ (1963–1966).
