    I'm guessing you don't understand rational models.

    A jack-ass of many trades, a master of none?

    Economists try to convince you that their field is just like physics the way Trump tries to tell you his scorecard is just like what happened on the course.

    You just posted three nonsequitors that say nothing and didn't respond at all to my post. In the case of the last one (all demand curves have some inelasticity), it is a head scratcher. I am not sure what it even means. Whatever you're talking about, it has nothing to do with the demand for labor. ... which is highly elastic (i.e. the more it costs, the fewer people who want jobs have jobs).

    They respond perfectly, you just don't get it. If you got it, you wouldn't be you.

    I am glad I don't get it. I'd rather have a clue about what I am posting about.

    The dismissals (economists think they are physicists; you aren't smart enough to get it) aren't a substitute for disproving the laws of supply and demand.

    Whether I am right or wrong. ... I don't just wave my hand and say, "You just don't get it." I support what I have to say. Either the laws of supply and demand exist or they don't. If they don't, help me get it: Why don't the laws of supply and demand apply to the market for labor? Your three nonsequitors (coherent or not) didn't address that.

    I figured Spicer's briefing today would be on camera so he could spike the football over the travel ban. Another missed opportunity.
