RE: Steemit Libertarians: Is this caller right about libertarian economists?

in #news7 years ago

I'm not sure honestly. I do think that generally, people who research more and have more of an open mind are less likely to associate themselves directly with the left or the right. Those who are associated with a single party and won't budge have little incentive to seek out unbiased information.

Sort:  

I have to agree on that, extremes rarely make good predictions neither do they tend to be very futureproof.
As @michaelluchies pointed out, I believe that researchers which do not tend strongly into any directions probably provide the most honest insights.
Nevertheless, even if those might get closer and more accurate analysis since they're under a lighter bias, I don't believe that anyone gets any close and that everyone who has been right with their economic analysis until now, just had a lot of luck.
