think about it: the notion of the atomized individual heroically undertaking the only real form of economic activity recogized by this "school"--wealth generation---operates in a context-free situation, dependant only upon inward features (spunk, grit, determination--pick your cliche)---factors like socail stratification, unequal distribution of economic (social, cultural) opportunities--not relevant---infrastructure--not relevant.
only the isolated Heroic Entrepreneur...

You have made assumptions that are not accurate.
