In every age those in power attracted charlatans and philosophers, to declare the kings work and world the best world there is, his doing the only plausible way and the attempt to errect a hypothesis heresy.
Communism at least made itself testable, it prognosed and proposed- and thus it could fail and be held against attempts to revive it unchanged. Economics never even got to this stage- they shirk simulations and hard data for the kings funds could cease, if they would propose testable scenarios or scenario trees.
Economics im afraid to admit, is less of a science, then some ideologys, who willingly submitted themselves to the killing fields of the experimental method.

- Earloop 8y agoPoor choice words I suppose - I'd much rather be submitted to the "killing fields of the experimental method" than the actual "killing fields" of a Communist regime. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khmer_Rouge_Killing_Fields https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khmer_Rouge_Killing_Fields
