As we all know, the great majority of economists are always right in their predictions, and they have always the best interests of the nations they operate at heart.
If anything, the housing market in 2008 showed that they were right in getting a third mortgage because the rising pricing will always pay themselves back and the panama connection proved that they are ever vigilant in serving their countries and their tax laws.
It must be great to be in the club of economics. They are like the Paladins of our times.
