Lars P. Syll — Economic methodology


More commentary from Lars about economic assumptions including methodological, pointing out that this is really not about economics as such, but rather about scientific method, or better, its misuse in order to convey the impression of objective truth. This is not only "mathiness" but also "truthiness." It's a rotten foundation for formulating economic policy that will affect the lives of millions domestically and billions internationally.
