placebo effect where people think they can actually win something. maybe the government should put money (not a lot though since taxpayers wouldn't want their money inside a bottle underground) underground then.

The lotto is a good example, people still buy tickets every week despite having a very small chance to win.

xD
This is a terrible example that makes no sense and has no correlation to the theoretical application.

read an Austrian school economics textbook please
free banking
gold standard
monetary targeting
blatant disregard for empirical evidence

Your faith in such ludicrous utopian economics is misplaced, scuba steve, and is comparable to that of collectivist hippies.

However I do admire their critical approach to boom (read: credit) economics and I'd like to see more orthodox (read; not crackpot heterodox Austrian bourgeois ultralibertarian scum) research into it.

lol.

rofl implying that JSM and Adam Smith weren't political economists


Also who was implying buying lotto tickets is stupid?
