This post has minimal relation to the scientific consensus on how economics works. It’s a lot like climate change denial posts saying that actually burning coal is good because of cloud albedos. Technically true, just very selectively so, in a manner that does not accurately reflect the bigger picture.


Economics isn't a science in the same way as climate science. I don't think you can label anything in the field a "scientific" consensus. Popular consensus maybe.
