The Hubris of Economists

As a Civil engineer, where everything does have a right answer, I find the field of economics interesting, if only for the fact that no two economists ever seem to agree. However, the fact that they don't should tell everyone who endeavors to understand this subject something; this is a complex subject, and no one knows the right answer. It's funny how in civil engineering, everyone expects you to be right, but in economics. you always expect to be right. Economists (including myself) should have some more humility when looking upon the great beast that is the economy; it does not move according to your wishes.
