    Criminology is economics?

      Right the economic one, not the unrelated criminology one: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parable_of_the_broken_window https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parable_of_the_broken_window

        Yes that is the same broken window as the fallacy. So it's famously wrong, not just suddenly discovered to be wrong.
