I do not have the answer to this issue. I do like to hear other perspectives and maybe learn a thing or two. Thanks for the discussion @Deleted User
Np. I suggest reading Sowell's basics of economics book if you're getting into economics.
Ill look it up

>Since 1980, he has worked at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. He writes from a libertarian conservative perspective, advocating supply-side economics.
bruh
supply side economics was debunked decades ago
>chicago school of economics
Yet in the 80s we still had trickle down economics
and that shit has been debunked decades ago too
imagine you go to university
you spend 3 years learning one school of economics
then you do a masters and/or PhD in that school of economics
these people arent even exposed to alternatives or refutations
and they've spent a decade learning their school
so naturally, these people are going out into the real world in true belief of their school of thought, that this is the *right way* to perceive the world
Now imagine that almost every university course teaches neoclassical derivatives
almost everyone will go into the real world being.... a neoclassical!
the *type* of education you get is more foundational for your belief system than *the truth*
people might say, *but if all these universities are teaching this economics, it must be right*
is that true in *arts*?
no
so it would be true in the social science of economics.... why?
There are tons of economic theories out there, and none of them are objectively right. Some people take these theories too seriously and don't realize that they are intellectual thought experiments.
right
like when an economist says "lets just assume people are rational"
this is a ridiculous starting point for a theory
@Pelth ehmm.. you are a socialist, and you're talking about economic theories being bs?
they are pretty much all based on certain assumptions being true without evidence.
