“It is no crime to be ignorant of economics, it is, after all, a specialized discipline and one that most people consider a ‘dismal science.’ But it is totally irresponsible to have a loud and vociferous opinion on economic subjects while remaining in this state of ignorance.”—Murray Rothbard

I might add that it is particularly disturbing that we have a president who’s irresponsibility in this regard is not remotely in dispute.
