“In the 1920s, Hayek began to grasp the importance of price signals. Problem was: how these signals related to coordination & dis-coordination.
“Hayek realized that when price signals were leading to coordination people were learning the right things; when price signals systematically misled people were systematically learning the wrong thing.”
- The Hayek Centre’s twitter account, summarising Bruce Caldwell’s explanation of Hayek’s insight.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
