Science can ONLY ever tell us the state of the world. It can only tell us how things are. It cannot tell us how things ought to be. Going from an is to an ought requires philosophy.

This. The OP disregards this and only believes that the 'hard' sciences are "truth" or are the only subjects that matter. What an uninformed and ignorant view of the world.

There is no failure, only feedback

Consider that science may not solely pertain to the physical sciences, but also include other realms of study that recruits the scientific method. I think its something we should be happy about...

You've been studying econ for over 4 years, which I'm assuming means you are a grad student of some sort...? How can you not learn who Keynes is in the first year of an undergrad? How can you even possibly study macroeconomics without an understanding of Keynes?

I have a BS in Economics, required 3d calculus, differential equations, linear algebra, calc based statistics. Didn't require any biology, chemistry, or physics but it's definitely the most quantitative social science around. I don't care if other losers try to call their discipline social science, most people think you're rain man if you have an economics degree (which I find absurd, econ wasn't a very hard course of study but people are so bad at it they think it's physics engineering or some chit).

fkin lol I thought I roasted you pretty hard but you just did a much better job yourself

In a topic about whether social science is real science, you bring up street smarts? Suddenly it's about being gay and the media? Holy **** son, you can't get your head around a 4 page thread. You're the last person who needs to be talking about science.
