The real punchline that everyone seems to be missing is that economists are willing to eat shit for money.

Which is sure metaphorically true with the ones the media puts out there.

It's the same requirement for being a regular talking head on any TV channel. Watching Anderson have to let Israeli PR by without any critical questions drove that home for me. Real economists are out there dropping giant data laden takes on the economy. Like some of the ones at Rand that calculated the amount of systemic wage theft since productivity diverged from wages.
