Nagging doubts about empirical economics research: a thread of resources for those who are unsure about the so-called empirical revolution, and perhaps quantitative social science in general. (1/n)

Great thread. Science is mostly fake because people don’t want to admit we don’t have the tools to find small effects in the complexity of the real world. We should focus on making policy around big obvious facts that don’t need complex methods, a lot of low-hanging fruit there.
