Interesting take on economists being enablers of monopolies - I guess we have known for a long time that you can "economist shop" and get any conclusion you want from the dismal science if you ask enough economists and here is a classic example.

It's time the entire profession was demoted out of the policy levers of governments and placed with astrologers and other voodoo professions. A discipline that can't make accurate and reliable predictions is always going to be prone to conclusion jumping for pay and is worse than useless.
