Lol, Making me flex this one.
I have an undergrad degree in economics from Harvard University. Gotta say it makes me pretty well equipped to poke at how BS it often is.

I really love it when people "flex" their training by converting every question in life into something in their domain and then shouting at everyone who argues with them. Love it.
Economists are often the worst, because almost everything involves money, so you can just pretend that every problem is an economics problem.

See you're assuming that you get to say that this is an economics problem. It isn't.
You have spent many years of schooling learning to count. Have you studied economics for at least 1 year of formal education? Have you read a book by a real economist?
Read 'Economics, the user's guide'. This is not how they think, this is not how they argue.
What we have here, is a person who hasnt learnt math arguing that 3 + 3 = 7 and claiming it's logically obvious.
Or like a medieval scientist arguing that Spontaneous Generation (Mice spawn in straw by themselves) is a law of physics and it's logically obvious.
