Ever wonder who would win in a head to head between actress Salma Hayek and economist F.A. Hayek?  I'm sure we all have.  Luckily, someone out there has done the legwork for us.  Check out the Hayek vs. Hayek scorecard!

This could actually be quite educational for some.  I was recently in a conversation with a senior majoring in economics at one of our state's large public universities (I won't say which...just that they have a great basketball program) and I asked if he'd ever heard of Hayek.  He promplty responded, "yeah; Salma Hayek, the actress, right?"  I felt pity for him.  He'd paid thousands in tuition to be taught economics, and was about to escape four years of economic education only having been introduced to one Hayek, and that while watching "Desperado".

You'll have to check the scorecard for yourself - but I will say, the winner may surprise you...
