Agreed would be interesting to have some sense and academia in that area.

Aside from not being Austrian, this person should at least have a degree in it. Otherwise the CT's will accuse whoever writes the articles of making stuff up or not knowing what they're talking about. (Not that they'll accept the conclusions of a trained economist in any event, but at least it will take that argument away from them).

Austrian economists obviously don't care about empirically testing their ideas, or whether these ideas even make logically coherent sense. For an example of the latter, Austrian economists hold up consumers as the ultimate sources of authority for what entrepreneurs produce; yet the market, reflecting consumer preferences, has rejected the teaching of Austrian economics as a waste of resources. Without the astroturfing efforts of rich patrons, starting with Ludwig von Mises's phony job at New York University, which subsidized him to write Human Action and other unreadable propaganda for his world view, Austrian economics probably would have faded into obscurity decades ago.
