  1. "Like any good #capitalistThinker, Austrian economist #FriedrichHayek had a Book of Genesis–esque prehistoric parable for his followers.

As society grew, trade expanded, and new social orders developed, human beings came to care less and less about each other. “Mass mutual #indifference,” Slobodian sums up, “was the secret to sustaining human civilization.”
