I'm new here and this is the second post I've read and I'm pretty thrilled. Great post and quality content.

I didn't know there was a fuss amongst economists as to ''the land of barter''. I feel pretty glad things didn't turn out to be as predicted, makes you really wonder who is the savage after all huh :)
Economists need to understand that not everything is a result of shrewd calculation. I bet there are some interesting discussions at the comments section :)

I'm eagerly awaiting for your next post man, sounds like a very interesting topic which coincides with my concerns also regarding the MICs. Keep up the good work man, God bless you!
