While economists cloak their views in the aura of science, what they actually do is make assumptions about the world, use those assumptions to build imaginary economies (known as models), and from those models generate conclusions.
This is because some unrealistic assumptions are used in models; in some kinds of models this may be relevant and understandable. However, using these unrealistic assumptions in some other models gives rise to confusion. Afterwards, we need to know how economic models could be realistic.
