Economics is basically numerology. A true science of economics could be described as "ecology + psychology", and would be based in physics.

The closest thing I've ever seen to a proper economics is the "Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars" document. (It's chapter one of Bill Cooper's infamous book "Behold a Pale Horse". I want to make it clear, FWIW, that I never read the rest of the book. I have less-than-zero to say about the content of the rest of the book.)

Oh look, it's online and with diagrams now: https://lawfulpath.com/ref/sw4qw/index.shtml Bitchin'.

It's pretty creepy: it's a combination of an exposition on a simple electrical model of economics with a nightmarish gloss of crypto-fascism (or something, I'm not sure what you'd call it.)

Anyhow, the "electro-economics" is what I want to call HN readers' attentions to: something like that is what I would expect economics to look like. (Without the creep Dr. Evil vibe.)
