Abstract: Abstract In my boyhood, I became an Austro-Libertarian without even knowing the terms, and my undergraduate coursework in math, chemistry, and economics gave me the quantitative reasoning skills to understand the fundamental correctness both of the Austrian School of Economics and basic Libertarian ideas. Subsequently, my initial career in a private university as an academic administrator provided me with sadly entertaining examples of what happens when the inmates start running the asylum. Finally, as a scholar of some standing for my research first in the cinemas of the Soviet Bloc and then in the two European wars I had up close and personal experiences in the abject failures of socialist regimes in particular and socialist thought in general.
