      I have a graduate diploma in economics and concur it’s mostly bullshit. The lecturers essentially agreed. Didn’t bother to continue to masters as I don’t think there’s anything more to learn from the field once you’ve confirmed that the world economy is based on lies and dice rolls.

      Economics is one of the few sciences where if a model prediction is consistently incorrect, we don’t discard the model but make a new sub-discipline out of finding excuses for it.
