Austrian"Amidst the morass of bland economic writings on taxation, Jean-Baptiste Say stands out like a beacon light. It is true that he was unusually devoted – even in that generally liberal era – to laissez-faire and the rights of private property, and only waffled a very few times in that creed. But for some reason, most laissez-faire and libertarian thinkers in history have not really considered taxation to be an invasion of the rights of private property." <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jbsay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jbsay</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/taxation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#taxation</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/aphet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aphet</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/economics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#economics</a>

Austrian"Say's excellent discussion of money, like most of the rest of his doctrine, has been grievously neglected by historians of thought. He begins by setting forth a theory of how money originates that was later to be developed in a famous article by Carl Menger and would form the basis of the first chapter in every money and banking text for generations. Money, he pointed out, originates out of barter." <a href="https://mises.org/library/book/austrian-perspective-history-economic-thought" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://mises.org/library/book/austrian-perspective-history-economic-thought</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jbsay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jbsay</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/menger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#menger</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/money" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#money</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/economics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#economics</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/aphet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aphet</a>

Austrian"We shall see below the precise nature of Say's thought and his contributions, as well as his decidedly ‘French’ non-Smithian, and ‘pre-Austrian’ logical clarity and emphasis on the praxeologic axiomatic-deductive method, on utility as the sole source of economic value, on the entrepreneur, on the productivity of the factors of production, and on individualism." <a href="https://mises.org/library/book/austrian-perspective-history-economic-thought" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://mises.org/library/book/austrian-perspective-history-economic-thought</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/jbsay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jbsay</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/aphet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aphet</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/rothbard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rothbard</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/economics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#economics</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/praxeology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#praxeology</a>
