So one must be "trained" in economics to have an opinion on this? Or am I misunderstanding you. If that is in fact what you are alluding to, then, for example, no one who doesn't work in law enforcement should have an opinion on crime; only those who work in/studies homelessness should have an opinion; etc. I prefer to look at economics (or any subject matter) from a holistic perspective; so these objectors (whether right or wrong in their opinion) should have the chance to, well, object.
