maybe economists are more certain of uncertainty than most certain scientists
They, like metaphysical whizes are masters of stating the answers in the form of nebulous questions....they both have fallbacks that way.
In any given year, the statistics show the supposed experts are at least 50% incorrect...applies to decades also.
In very few other sciences would 50% stand as a very good record for theory for predictions..might as well flip a coin.
...fancy words and fancy number games are wonderful parlor tricks to bemuse the bored, but look at the state of the global economy when the whiz kids get to play their 'number games' ...people suffer
Oh, my, what a tirade....shame on me.
