Science is the study of God's creation and those disciplines that He gave mankind (Physics, Biology, Engineering, Calculus, Chemistry, etc).

At most, Economics is a Social Science, and today a weak one at that, given the corruption and manipulation that rules it.
Here are some more financial terms (like Quantitative Easing) that these charlatans have dreamed up. They are copied from the hard sciences, and deliberately invented so that they sound authoritative. Notice the words "absolute", "critical", etc. They even employ religious terms such as "covenant."

It's all a paper thin lie. The Central Banks have manipulated everything, and now we have unstable, debt based currencies. The US Dollars (Federal Reserve Notes and Bank Notes) are "backed" by either taxpayer debt or private debt, and it is all a house of cards. The real problem the last few yeas is that the world's markets have basically been "given" massive, massive amounts of money that were created out of thin air by the Central Banks to "stimulate" the economy. And what backed this transfer of Trillions? Government debt.
My wife studied Economics. She was the college Valedictorian. I was an Engineering undergraduate. She went back to school to become the best nurse in the nation. She would not even spit for those who hold an Economics degree.
