      I guess the same reason acting like you’re smarter than Nobel prizewinners is important to you.

      (Oh wait, neither of us are doing that? Huh.)

          You too.

          Although next time you act like high school history teachers knew exactly for what a Nobel prize in economics was awarded for decades, I would suggest going by the academic papers that the winners wrote rather than a summary of a press release that doesn’t even name any of them.

          But then I don’t teach high school history, so I clearly don’t know my stuff when it comes to these things.
