Another classic r*ddit thread full of the most libbed up shit imaginable. Great for pulling some very dunkable comments, not great for your sanity or blood pressure.
This comment really struck me (although there are many more stunning ones) because Western liberal economics is bogus and the legal profession is riddled with arrogant doofuses.

idk this seems like they could as easily be complaining about chuds as a lib. and communists don't take econ 101 we either read capital or have a phd in economics
I think what set me off was the "I'm an expert in financial analytics at a major consultancy" and those dipshits literally have no idea how the system works - fucking Greenspan, the supposed messiah of neoliberal economics admitted after 2008 that all their models were wrong.
I can live with bad models, but defending them as god given truth before and overstretching their utility is just evil.
I took plenty of Econ courses and know plenty who did take some for economy of states and business administration, too. It is good to know your enemy and be able to critique them, however you personally really don't have to do it cause most critiques are already known and can be understood from the outside.
In that regard Richard Wolf's talk about that hold very true.
