DOS VEROS DEUSES QUE SÃO POUCO ECONÓMICOS AOS FALSOS DEUSES ECONÓMICOS - A ECONOMIC APPROACH JUST COMIC LIKE THE TUTSI ROACH....

1. THE GENERALIZATION GODS OR DOGS....

    

   “As soon as they leave, Leon says to me: "I disagree, sir. There are people who aren't insane, and I'm one of them. People who generalize are mentally ill.”
   ― Milton Rokeach The Three Christs of Ypsilanti: A Psychological StudY

   “Yet it is unassailably true that so long as we lack omniscience and do not know all of the future, all our generalizations are fallible or only probable. And the history of human error shows that a general consensus, or widespread and unquestioned feeling of certainty, does not preclude the possibility that the future may show us to be in error.”
   ― Morris F. Cohen, An Introduction to Logic and Scientific Method

   
   

   ISOSTATIC EQUILIBRIUM AND ECONOMIC EQUILIBRIUM DOES NOT EXIST IN THE EARTH SYSTEM THEY ARE MANY ISOSTATIC AND ECONOMIC ANOMALIES IN THIS YEAR 2014 THEY think OTHERS misunderstand engineering if you are thinking of it as value free.....A ECONOMIA TAL COMO A CROSTA TERRESTRE NÃO É HOMOGÉNEA É CONSTITUÍDA POR UMA GRANDE VARIEDADE DE ROCKS AND ROCK STARS ....NOMEADAMENTE AUSTRIANS

   Generalization is flawed thinking only when applied to individuals. It is the most accurate way to describe the mass, the Wad. And yours is a democracy, a dictatorship of the Wad.

   
   

    GERMAN Engineers are frequently political and philosophical advocates LOOK AT MERCKEL . NOT A friend of mine SOMEONE developed the first spreadsheet,  A VIRTUAL CONSTRUCT fully realizing that it would lead to decentralization of corporate information structure and computerization of small businesses and sole proprietorships. 

   Another is a big free / open software advocate, arguing that the building blocks of computation should be as available as roads and streetlights, so let's not forget the engineers who developed our modern road system in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and restructured our civilization or the engineers who developed street lights and changed urban society,,,,,AND THAT IS FALSE BECAUSE STREET LIGHTS USED TO BE IN WHALE OIL AND AFTER IN GAS.....
   
   It's easy to overlook others. TRUE

   Architecture and political advocacy have gone hand in hand since the first "big man" built a fancy house as a feasting hall or posted some cave art where the light from a lantern would illuminate it. 

   Biologists GENERALIZATION 

   are almost always political. 

   All generalizations are dangerous, even this one.”
   ― Alexandre Dumas-fils 

   “Causing any damage or harm to one party in order to help another party is not justice, and likewise, attacking all feminine conduct [in order to warn men away from individual women who are deceitful] is contrary to the truth, just as I will show you with a hypothetical case. Let us suppose they did this intending to draw fools away from foolishness. It would be as if I attacked fire -- a very good and necessary element nevertheless -- because some people burnt themselves, or water because someone drowned. The same can be said of all good things which can be used well or used badly. But one must not attack them if fools abuse them.”

   
   

   Look how much controversy their working hypothesis generates when all they are trying to explain is why there are edible plants and animals, and let's not get into birth control or disease control.

   In displaying the psychology of your characters, minute particulars are essential. God save us from vague generalizations!"
   
   (Letter to Alexander Chekhov, May 10, 1886)”
   

   The curious thing about individuals is that their singularity always goes beyond any category or generalization in the book.”

   Ideas, of course, have a place in fiction, and any writer of fiction needs a mind. But ideas are not the best subject matter for fiction. They do not dramatize well. They are, rather, a by-product, something the reader himself is led to formulate after watching the story unfold. The ideas, the generalizations, ought to be implicit in the selection and arrangement of the people and places and actions. They ought to haunt a piece of fiction as a ghost flits past an attic window after dark.”
   

   ― Wallace Stegner, On Teaching and Writing FictioN

   
   
   European philosophers and historians often pick up on this kind of thing, sometimes to an absurd extent, but Madonna was onto something with her lyrics about being a material girl in a material world. You'd be surprised what you can learn about society and gender relationships when considering the design of a kitchen stove.
   
   Economists, like just about everyone else, are stuck being advocates. If the facts speak for themselves, then the issue is what facts are collected and how are they measured. (For example, why is the denominator of efficiency usually a monetary quantity rather than a labor hour quantity?)

   Beyond Noah's comprehension. He would argue like a Japanese - say nothing! But, in the next blog he will be foaming at mouth like bunch of Jews arguing!!
   
   Economists know they have fabricated a dope called measure of money and everybody is hooked on it because it avoids hunting for the most of us. We would much rather gather and protect through dope. Underlying all this is Darwinian and most economists fail to understand that.

   You are interpreting the engineer/advocate split too literally (you must be an engineer). :) It's just a symbol for a dichotomy of different traits and characteristics, which are commonly understood to map onto a "engineer/advocate" dichotomy.

2. In response to the question of whether to be advocates or engineers, it is pretty clear that Economics as a field has enough engineers. Most Economists I know are working for large corporations, and almost all of them are engineers within the company, not advocates (there are a few extremely annoying exceptions). They have to forecast demand and prices for their products, and this work does not allow ideology to get in the way. They build structural econometric models, and they let the chips fall where they may. Sometimes the models have implications which could be interpreted in a political way (yes, even microeconomic models of demand can have political implications), but that's not the objective of the analysis. I was at a business economics conference (NABE) a couple of years ago, where someone did a presentation on "Austrian Economics 101." The reaction of the audience was extremely negative, as they saw it either as making no useful predictions or coming from too simplistic assumptions. Business economists are not in a position to advocate in this way. So the job of advocacy falls to academic economists. After all, if good economists don't advocate, the only advocates will be bad economists.
   error you know only your reality
   THE INPUT MODELS
   The economist model E.con
   The following assumptions
   concerning €uro and dollar and thaler and tailor are made:
   the economist model is radially symmetrical
   over the region examined, in this
   case the economic model in pounds or euros or rubles to Great Britain and northwestern and southern Europe dont mix with the NorthAmerican economic shield
   the response to economic loading is
   approximated by a linear viscoelastic
   Maxwell body with a realistic
   radial dependence of elastic
   parameters and density nil or nihil or null
