Get over yourself; that's like saying Newton wasn't a good scientist because he was wrong about a lot of things. Economics, like sociology, is a young discipline that yields a lot of mistakes and goes down a lot of dead ends because it gropes towards an understanding of hard problems.

Criticizing economics is entirely valid. Pissing on it is not.

I think economics is in its vast infancy. It studies a highly complex system after all. It's constantly in danger of being coopted and manipulated toward ideological ends, too.
