I may be only a fish and chip shop lady, but some of these economists need to get their heads out of the textbooks and get a job in the real world. I would not even let one of them handle my grocery shopping.

I'm no economist. I don't even play one on TV. I'm just a husband, a father, a taxpayer.

In my long life, I have known some great economists, but I have never counted myself among their number nor walked in their company.

I'm not a macroeconomics person.

I got into economics because I wanted to make things better for the average person.

I'm not an economist; I'm a hacker who has spent his career exploring and repairing large networks.

I am often considered almost not a part of the profession of Establishment economists. I am even referred to as a sociologist. And by that, economists usually do not mean anything flattering.
