Yes? So "yay" for small victories.

Mea culpas are more convincing when there's some kind of contrition. An intellectually honest person would at least nod towards having a change of heart, updated opinions.

Shoutouts to Liberal (neoliberal?) economists like Ruchir Sharma is progress. Of course, I hope Friedman ventures outside of the Mises vs Keynes food fight. I find Raj Chetty and David Graeber interesting, for instance.

Edit:

Oops. Looks like a "contrarian" economist Sharma is something like a deficit hawk. I regret my suspension of disbelief.
