>>11573273Modern economics is a religion and functions only because it is a religion, bound by faith, which is a stronger glue than reason. Economics as such is nebulous at worst and contrived at best, it's an abstract construction which approximates an infinitely complex reality rather poorly, provides no explanatory or predictive utility, no testable theories, and possesses data so sparse as to render any relations derived as spurious under their unrealistic assumptions and complete buffoonery when the nature of reality (ubiquitous non-linearity, infinite complexity, etc.) is taken into account. It is a complete and utter waste of time, you will learn nothing except how foolish humans are as a species to have propagated a mass delusion for hundreds of years and allowed to it to permeate their institutions.
