WHERE HOPPE SHINES

If Hans Hoppe is reasoning using incentives he’s flawless. I hang on his every word. We just need to keep him away from justificationism and he’s safe. In other words, he’s a much better economist(social scientist) than philosopher(testimonial scientist.). I’m beginning to think that ‘testimonial science” (philosophy), is the hardest subject of all. We are not evolved for truth telling. We are evolved for negotiation on cooperation. And while he does very well, his upbringing in philosophy is an albatross that burdens his legacy. If he, unlike most, but perhaps like Russell, admitted this prior to his death he would be remembered as one of the greats I think.
