    Sure he did, he was a freelance writer.

    He never held a job - but he sold articles to a dozen different Newspapers, including the New York Tribune.

    Why do you pretend that you have knowledge of Marx, when you clearly have none?

    The last economic book I read was "The Great Devaluation."

    https://www.amazon.com/Great-Devalua.../dp/111969146X

    Unlike you, I've read "Capitol, Vol. 1." It is NOT a difficult read and contains some insightful information. Marx was the original professional student. He wrote from the perspective of a man never entering the real world. All was theory and speculation. But Marx was far from stupid, and much he wrote has merit. His conclusions are wrong, as a cloistered academic, Marx was divorced from the reality of life. Marx wrote freelance for a variety of Newspapers, but never held an actual job.

    I've read "The General Theory"

    I've read "Man, Economy, and the State." (utterly brilliant)


    I've read "Capitalism and Freedom."
    What do you think economists do, dipshit? They spend 10 years in the academy doing research.

    It's closer than economist, but Marx was a political philosopher. He practices none of the rigors of sociology.

    Did you read a comic book about Marx, or something?

    Neither do many other richkids, and Rightists have no problem with that. Of course, Leftists love their Kennedys and other guillotine-fodder who preach about social justice.

    One of the stupidest attempts by Marxists to coopt the heroes of the enemy. Lenin proscribed such acts, I don't believe Marx would have approved.

    You've not read a "lot" of anything - save perhaps comic books.

    Marx critique of capitalism is proving to come true. Marx detailed why society deserves better. That makes Marx both an economist and a sociologist.

    Adam Smith, founder of capitalist theory, was a professor of moral philosophy.

    He was a richkid, married to a countess. Engels, another HeirHead, had to bail him out after Marx put his own family through voluntary "romantic" poverty. Then his ignorant ideas put Russia through that, and it wasn't very romantic.
    "Heir Head"

    I love it. Mind if I steal it?

    Academy?

    BWAHAHAHAHA

    Typically, an "economist" would have a masters in economics, 4 years as an undergrad, 2 years of graduate studies, but this depends on the school.

    Berkley, for instance offers a Ph.D. in economics, but this is a 6 year program that jumps from the baccalaureate level to the doctoral level - effectively the same level of study that NY Mellon requires for a Masters in economics. Both are 6 years of study.

    Most "economists" either teach, work for the government, or very large financial institutions.

    What do you consider the most influential book on economics that you've read?

    "Green Eggs and Ham?"

    Adam Smith (Capitalism) and Karl Marx (Communism) were both philosophers.
