     @Patricia There is no Noble prize in economics. They're just jealous and try to make economy sound like a science by calling it that. We shouldn't help them.

     @MartinClausen Yes, but I already said that. And I'm sure she already knew before I said so also, so even my comment was strictly speaking unnecessary, and your rephrasing of my comment doubly so. Let's both try harder to not fall into the trap of mansplaining :) @Patricia

     @Patricia @forteller It is a quote but it is strictly speaking wrong. Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel is not a Nobel Prize, but a separate prize awarded based on the same principles as the Nobel Prizes.
