[edit] Some corrections

Cantillon was not a Physiocrat. He can also not be claimed exclusively by the Austrians as their precursor, because the entire Classical school happened in between (for over a century). They like(d) him, that is true, but they cannot claim him. By the way, claiming that Cantillon had knowledge of Monetarism, a 20th century current in economics, is clearly an anachronism. Instead I think he know that Law was running a pyramid scheme, and that timing was the key to fortune. I have instead inserted the "New School" History of Economics text, to be completed from a number of other authoritative sources in the coming weeks.
