WE DON’T HAVE TO AGREE ON MEANS – ONLY ENDS
We don’t have to agree on everything. Hanson and has built a career from stating western civ begins with the Greeks. So have most historians. Gimbutas, Anthony, Mallory, Duchesne, and I, all make the argument it’s the steppe. Is that a material difference? Not really. Because we agree on the resulting properties of the west. Aristotle and Epicurus understood gravity existed, and Newton and Einstein increased the precision but still didn’t solve it. Smith, Hayek and I all recognized informal capital, and incrementally advanced it’s understanding. Mises, Rothbard, Hayek, Hoppe and I solved social science in four generations. We don’t need to think the same. We just need to head in roughly the same direction. Knowledge accumulates. Democracy is for herds. Markets are for men.
