    hooooly shit this person is comparing the “”“”““work””“”“”" economists do to that of doctors

    economists are the definition of fiddling with levers. marxian economists are the closest to actual scientifically understanding economies (because materialism and political economy) and even that’s a stretch Richard-D-Wolff

      Economists are more the definition of a tenured professor/clergyman, they don’t know shit about supply chains and engineering

      Nobody who talks about economics like that person has even passed econ 101/102. I know this because I can explain why they’re wrong using only what I learned in econ 101/102. Though to be fair, nobody who actually understood econ 101/102 would support capitalism at all.
