Abstract

This chapter highlights a number of issues that require further investigation. What, for example, is the numerator and the denominator of the Austrian tax dependency ratio (X/Y), where X is the millions (or billions?) of dollars that Austrians have appropriated, and Y is their ‘research’ output? It would be useful to have a metrics-based examination of what type of producer-sovereignty students of Austrian economics have been exposed to; what ‘free’ market donors believe they are funding; plus a systematic study of Mises’ influence over the anti-democratic spectrum—including those who funded Hitler. Most if not all of those ‘scholars’ who promote the ‘free’ market are on the payroll of the Tobacco, Obesity and Fossil Fuel industries. It would be useful to examine the cluster of behavioural characteristics of those who put ‘financial considerations’ ahead of their ‘professional’ reputation. What would be revealed by a Mises-inspired examination of ‘life history by the psycho-analytical method’ (or any other method) of those who assert that ‘Waking and dreaming man’s wishes turn upon sex’?

Mises’ (1985 [1927], 44) next sentence—‘The only consideration that can be decisive is one that bases itself on the fundamental argument in favor of democracy’—should be taken in the context of Mises’ anti-democratic contempt for the lower orders, and Hayek’s (1978) statement: ‘I believe in democracy as a system of peaceful change of government; but that’s all its whole advantage is, no other. It just makes it possible to get rid of what government we dislike.’ Friedrich Hayek, interviewed by Leo Rosten 15 November 1978 (Centre for Oral History Research, University of California, Los Angeles, http://oralhistory.library.ucla.edu/).

According to Clark (1964, 57), the Freikorps consisted of three elements: ‘soldiers, mainly young soldiers, from the frontline who preferred to go on soldiering, youthful idealists of the aristocratic and professional classes who had experience of local bolshevisants, and frank adventurers.’
