Have you seen Walter Block's appearances on 'Our Story'? I think the non-Austrian side is just horrible in their responses and almost irritating at times with their lack of understanding of economic theory. Block explains his positions in such a clear and concise manner that only an ignoramus could misunderstand him.

On Legalization of Drugs

On Anti-trust, Monopoly, Government Intervention, Privatization, and Theory of the Firm.

The above video makes me want to hit my head against a brick wall anytime I watch it. It makes Ron Paul's detractors in the televised debates look like geniuses.

Reason is the guiding light that shines through the veil of ignorance.
