>Apologies to the other economists on this list, but if universities
have econ departments, why not Astrology, et al.?<
I gotta earn a living somehow. While I'm at it, I don't think it's
helpful to dismiss "economics" (an abstraction). Rather, the best
critique of bad economics is to do good economics (i.e., poltical
economy).
Someone said that the "war against terrorism" could only be eternal,
since you could never defeat an abstract noun. The same applies to the
abstract noun called economics.
