 Action is always necessarily rational because an acting man is always aiming his action to satisfy some desire. The terms rational and irrational are inappropriate and meaningless with respect to the subjective goals of a man. Since nobody is in a position to replace his own values for those of an acting individual, it’s futile to pass judgments on other people’s goals that come from their free will. Praxeology takes the values of acting man as a given and does not analyze them. Therefore praxeology is value-free.
