There is no observation in economics, as information is profit, no one has incentive to post accurate supply or demand data. As such the entire field of macro-economics has no micro foundation. A striking example is the phillips curve which tries to relate employment to inflation. Beautiful linear model.. look at data, litter ally no correlation, which by the way is the second tenet on why its not a science.
Shoot a ball from a air gun, record where it falls, you'll get an r^2 of like 0.99, get that level of fit in social science, like 0.2 at best, which also hints at the reproducibility crisis of the humanities as well, its airing between making up patterns and grasping at straws.
I left my economic degree feeling like they attempted a cult indoctrination upon thee, there was no debate, scientific method, only canon and mantra. It was a priest hood for the modern money god.
in the end its a humanity, an art, though great for non-fiction
