“the day I see economists form a wolf pack or use delegitimisation tactics to descend on the rightwinger who uses ec theory to justify bad public policy, or general life cynicism, rather than vs the lefty who complains about him, is the day I’ll take their claims seriously” said David Gaeber

NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT

“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert”. - J Robert Oppenheimer.
