If you read the road to serfdom, you would see he was a very reasonable thinker often making room for necessary intervention. He rarely makes a case for out-rightly abolishing anything. Rather he carefully chooses to say that we must be highly analytical and skeptical of all things the government does. Especially in terms of regulation, taxes, laws, and programs.

- andrewcooke 14y agobtw, if anyone is interested, one of the best books i have ever read is hayek's challenge (a bio) - http://www.press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/H/bo3624545.html http://www.press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/H/bo362... i was not (and am not) a fan of his economics (at least as seen in current cartoon-like views looking back), and cannot remember why i started reading the book, but it really is excellent (very well written bio with a fascinating subject). and yes, he was a very smart guy who adapted his views as necessary.
