My favorite economist has passed away. A voice for reason and truth has been silenced.

Your use of the phrase …”has been silenced”… could be misconstrued by some to indicate he did not pass of natural causes.
It is sad when anyone passes. My favorite mother-in-law passed away 11/2. But her voice will live on in those who loved her.

Not my intent. In time, death silences us all. though I would think that William’s writings will keep his voice going for a while.

I didn’t think so. But some conspiracy types could take it the wrong way.
And while I disagreed with most of what I have read by him, I am sure that Libertarian economists will refer to his “voice” for many years.

Never a fan, but sad at the passing. I never thought his thoughts and perspective came from a specific agenda, just his heart.

I didn’t think Libertarians used their hearts in matters of economics. 😇 (Borrowing Len’s sarcasm emoji)
