Unfortunately with econ, our tools are maths, stats, logic and reasoning. We can almost never do actual experiments, which is fundamentally necessary for science. In my opinion, an unpopular but correct description of the state of economics is that the best economists are the ones who are able to make the arguments which others value the most.
