Peter Schiff's father, Irwin Schiff, stated that one of the reason economics is called a dismal science is that it defies the human itch to meddle in things. As Irwin Schiff said, imagine your a doctor and economics is a sick patient in a slump. The proper advice one would give to this... patient is I have no power to heal you. You have the natural capabilities to heal on your own without my help. If I try to heal you I will only make you sicker as I interfere with your natural corrective abilities to make yourself better. The only 20th century President I know of who understood this basic fact was Ronald Reagan. Pres. Hoover certainly did not when his meddling turned the 1929 stock market crash into the Great Depression.

Most Doctors are simply “Practicing” medicine.

The same with most Economists.
