The guy hates neoliberal economics and parodies them. Given that I hang to the left, I find it hilarious. If Viennese economicists are your thing, you might hate it. Frankly, I don’t find it any worse than Heinlein and the author is a lot more self-aware of his political prejudices than Heilein ever was. He’s also pretty libertarian, so if you’re what passes for a conservative in the U.S. and you don’t pay much attention to the economic theories that float the Republican leadership’s boats, you’ll probably be fairly happy with his politics.
