"What passes for economics today isn’t science; it’s more like a religion, where dogma is handed down from on high.
Economists write abstruse papers that are used as reasons for the government to “step in” and “do more.”
Economists have actually become something of a secular priesthood who interpret the doctrines of various prophets.
The dominant prophet for the last century has been JM Keynes." --- Doug Casey
