[ExI] Physics versus psychology

[Dan]

While I don't agree with Bill's point here, economists as economists are not 
really psychologists, are they? In fact, here I'd agree with Mises, Robbins, 
etc. that economics is a logic of action and not psychology -- that economic 
laws are not psychological in nature.

Regards,

Dan

I can show you economists playing with a trillion dollar machine, will that do?
