Not OP but I have not. As an ignorant, I have a burning question (for real, not being facetious): isn't it bullshit?

Judging by the outcomes of the field and the absurd world we live in today with insane boom/bust cycles every few years, sky-high levels of wealth accumulation, inflation out of control world-wide, one cannot wonder how nobody seems to understand it.

From the outside, it looks like either they are producing incorrect/incomplete theories that simply don't work in the real world, or it's all so theoretical that it never really translates into people's lives.

Or, alternatively, the system is working exactly as intended and the goal was always to maximize for a few individuals and not society in the first place.
