Mises’ take on liberalism as a push for reason in social policy feels a bit... selective. Sure, he’s right that liberalism isn’t naive about human irrationality, but funny how nobody’s talking about how "reason" often gets sidelined in real-world social governance—think welfare, education, or labor laws. The Wikipedia entry mentions individual rights, but does that align with Mises’ "reason-first" approach, or is it more about market logic? Follow the money: when "reason" serves profit over people, does that still count? The Cairn.info snippet hints at liberalism as a force against constraints, but constraints are sometimes necessary. Is this a call for utopia, or a dodge?
