Why Economics

It's times like these (right before an Econ final) that I ask myself why the hell did I study Economics.

And it's articles like these

http://www.freetochoose.net/article_1.html

That remind me why I chose it in the first place.

Forget the math, the math is just for proofs, the ideas behind are the real fun and substance that Economics is based on. Now I just wished Chicago focussed less on Math and more on actual Economics.
