No, not at all. I think in all the comments here, there is an egregious error. The error is in totally ignoring the concept of economics or failing the recognize the reality of scarcity. It's not a "social construct"in any non-trivial sense. People throw that "social construct" thing around as if it is at all relevant. You could say the "law of identity" is a social construct and you don't accept ... Ok that's fine, it just means you, and I mean this only literally, don't accept "logic."
To "make every human's life a paradise" is also quite literally to either reject the concept of scarcity or to think you would create some sort "Matrix" like environment, some weird sci-fi stuff, which is fun to talk about but not a solid economics argument.
That's absurdity. If economics were the end all, be all, we'd live in a planned economy dominated by a small cartel of businesses.
Society rejected that 100+ years ago. Recall that until recently, the folks concerning themselves with money were not at the top of the social heap -- with good reason.
Based on your usage, this is totally wrong notion of "absurdity." What I wrote is actually correct.
I'm not sure what "economics were the end all be all means" but economics is a method by which to understand the "world" under the circumstance of scarcity. I suggest reading a little more of it; it's an interesting topic.
Actually, I don't think this makes any sense. Economics is not about describing a perfect society or something. Don't be silly. :)
It's about understanding reality. Agents engage in activity described by economic principles under the condition of scarcity.
I know that seems sad or something I guess to some. It's like climate change doesn't care if you believe it's real or not.
It's just the way it is ... under the condition of scarcity.
Most economists didn't predict the Global Financial Crisis. Given that you have to wonder about the utility of the so called 'economics' and whether statements made by economists are true.
Feel free to correct me or give more information, I am perfectly fine with being educated.
