Programmers Should Ignore Academic Bullshit

Programmers create stuff, solving the actual problem.
Academics write garbage papers which give them more grant money.

Economics is always like that. Consider Trump's The Wall project:
1. Trump hires contractor to build the wall.
2. The Wall is built, but the same contractor has armed Mexicans with tools to damage the Wall and dig under it.
3. Now wall must be constantly maintained, including installment of new high tech tools, like anti-drone measure,s motion detectors, and detectors of motion detectors.
4. After a few decades the wall costs order of magnitude more than the original problem itself, while Mexican immigrants still found a way around the wall with all its high tech farts and whistless.
5. The Wall maintenance industry created so many jobs for rednecks and niggers, it is now impossible to rollback, without creating unrest and revolution.

Until people understand how economics work, there will be the non-ending stream of such problems.
