He picked a poor analogy with medicine. Psychology would have been a much better comparison, or even neuroscience. In these disciplines there are things that we can talk about with a great deal of confidence, but some of the most important questions are difficult to even frame.

How do you feel about your education in economics? Worth the while? I think another reason why people love to talk about it, is because it is so fascinating. It's like social math weather.
