Modern economics is a failed discipline because it's based on physics envy. Most economists weren't good enough mathematicians for physics so they model human behavior and markets with math to pretend they are similar to physicists

It's a failed discipline because (huge eye roll) the financial incentives are too strong. Too many whales competing for the same marginal gains, it's like the opposite of every useful science.

That's right, my boy. Take Keynessianism for example. It was born out of failing to understand a very simple equation that disproved it.
