MODERATORS
Economics, as an intellectual discipline, is closer to theology than physics. Its power is proportional to the belief it commands.
Finance is an arbitrary subset of accounting and mathematics, cherry picked by the owning class, and applied as their supporting mythology.
It’s an entirely imaginary construct, which means alternatives are only ever a conjuring away.
They are experts in made up numbers. They are purveyors of status quo. They are yes men for the ruling class.
