All theories are based on assumptions, but our prevailing economics is a proxy of and by the depraved. Our understanding of the world around is a developing tapestry of relativity, one which unfolds in accordance with our best proxy of its workings.
The problem with our prevailing religion of economics is its confounding of consequence and cause, which yields depravity of reason as the lifeless projection of how the world and evolution works. Our current religion of economics is voodoo science, ripe for the dustbin of history, and must be reinvented to shine its light from a regurgitation of hindsight towards reliable foresight that breaks the norm.
