James Geary at All Aphorisms, All the Time posts on Metaphor and Economics, which is a response to Stephen Ziliak's article at The Poetry Foundation, Haiku Economics. These discussions of course reverse things as we discuss them here a bit, as they are talking about how poetry could and should (and do) influence economics. Metaphor and poetry would seem a logical fit for Austrian economists.
It's easy money

Limerick by yours truly:
ReplyDeleteThere once was a man name Mises,
Who looked at the socialist pieces,
Of theory and said,
We’re better off dead,
Life’s better when freedom increases.
More of them here.
