Economists often claim that sociology and psychology are not “real” sciences — not like economics. Economics of course has more mathematical models and “empirical” results. Never mind that these results and models don’t correspond with anything in the actual world or how people really behave, but the math works out!

I’d say that 40-50% of psychology is probably wrong, maybe 20-30% of sociology, but probably 80% of economics is delusional or ideologically-driven (so if it is correct, it’s just accidentally so).

It is improving, though. Slowly. Maybe in a few hundred years economics can achieve the relatively-high standards of sociology.
