, I assure you that plenty of Tea Party folks are quite familiar with the works of Hayek, von Mises, and Rothbard.

I have about thirty books by those three, and Carl Menger, Eugen von Böhm-Bawerk. All were geniuses. Many Tea Party supporters are quite familiar with the Austrian School of economics.

As an aside, I consider Mise's Human Action to be a masterpiece of supreme intellectual thought. I my opinion, Mises' is an intellectual equal of Einstein.

My favorite von Mises book is Bureaucracy (1944). His most clearly written work, imo. But yes, Human Action is his magnum opus.
