ECONOMICS

I have long argued that this subject is not based on fundamental truths – the rules change at the will of the main players. Proper subjects exist in an interconnected world which includes the science and maths, but also the environment, social aspects, demography, urban/rural, health,transport networks, etc.etc.. Economics as practised by modern day hedge funds, corporations, bankers, only exists as a means to make a profit. Hedge funds £2 billion ontrading grain and soya beans after the Ukraine crisis, an oil trader paying out £billion to 300 employees due to the same crisis. Firms that fund the tories making millions on PPE during the Covid episode. Supermarkets making large profits and paying out to shareholders amd management staff due to inflation.
