Thank you so much for your thoughts! I totally agree with what you say about Thorstein Veblen. (Another commenter here, Gabriel Wells, talks about Ludwig von Mises, also very relevant.)

Re Veblen, publishing in Medium is the best so far I can do, which given your comments, is close to nothing. I might not be a "doer" but I'm going to see how far I can push things until there is a baton to hand off. I need all the help I can get.
