Ideas should hurt

In The Marketplace of Ideas Being Wrong Should Hurt por Peter Boettke:

In the marketplace of ideas, classical liberals should never shy away from representing their arguments as clearly and as forcefully as they warrant. You are what you write in intellectual affairs. In fact, attempting to "hide" you perspective is an ultimate sign of disrespect to both the ideas and your intellectual exchange partners. You are, in essence, lying to yourself and to your intellectual exchange partners.

I simply do not believe that any employer would discriminate against holding intellectual conversations about economic thinkers --- be it Marx, be it Keynes, be it Friedman, be it Hayek, be it Rothbard. Unless, of course, you are not supposed to be having any intellectual discourse at a blog when you are supposed to actually be working for what you get paid to do.

Truth tracking requires assigning accountability to your positions. Ideas need to be represented by people.
