For one Max Keiser to argue that Ludwig von Mises is not an Austrian is like arguing that John Maynard Keynes was not a Keynesian; David Ricardo was not a Ricardian; or Adam Smith was not a Smithian. He sounds like he’s on drugs. The entire academic world has equated Mises with the Austrian School for the past century. A lone nut with no reputation or credentials in the field who makes such a silly claim should be ignored as just another nutcase “schooled” in the hallucinating weirdo tradition of a Lyndon La Rouche. Listening to his rantings on economics is like trying to learn environmental science from the “Unabomber” (or Al Gore).
