I would guess that you have no education in logic. If you did, you would realize that your attempt to discredit his thoughts on the current economic situation is a petty ad hominem attack based on credentialism.

If you think he's not worth arguing with, then don't argue. If you're going to argue, argue the substance of his statements rather than speculate on his education. Anything else makes YOU appear ignorant.

I should add that I'm not a free market purist. I think the world is a very complicated place and most simplistic views are useful only for sounding smug over drinks. Unfettered free markets have already been tried. They look a whole lot like feudalism and life is just as hard in a company town as it is in a peasant village.
