Is Kling embarrassed that he didn’t get a perfect score? Is it really so hard for him to understand that if a person doesn’t share the major beliefs of a typical Austrian economist, then the Austrian would not consider this person to be an Austrian economist?
Kling’s score of 78 means that he is not agree with most Austrians on all matters of economics, but he agrees on much. So what’s the big deal? That’s what the point of the test is. If everybody got a 100 percent regardless of his or her personal beliefs, it would be a stupid test, wouldn’t it?
