    You miss the point that the soft sciences are being used as an excuse for bad policy. If the soft sciences informed a model for good policy this post wouldn’t exist but instead we have the Laffer curve and trickle down economics.

    No one here is calling for a disillusion of economics. It just needs to be used appropriately instead of as a voodoo magic to transfer wealth upwards.
