TIL, after years of playing Stardew Valley on-off, that Pierre apparently has quite the (well-deserved) hatedom.

        iirc it's basically about how the "invisible hand" doesn't actually exist it's just big corporations (which basically own the country anyway) making deliberate, informed decisions rather than a central government

          this Yup, it's about how major corpos do central planning too, directed by banks, and how Mises Calculation Problem has been acceptably solved thanks to computers and vertical integration, or some shit. Not as revolutionary a book as I was hoping, but it's a short read and a nice gotcha for market-brained libs and chuds

            Your comment and the one above actually summarize the whole book a d you do not actually need to read it.

            Wondering if there's a good, concise book like this which tears apart the myth of private railroad market efficiency in the 19th and 20th centuries (which is a common one Lolberts try to tout).
