Job security via ignorance

Several people in the news are saying that the recession is over. Coincidentally, none of those people are unemployed. In fact, economic experts are never unemployed, even though their predictions about the economy are usually wrong. It's like continuing to pay a pilot who crashes the plane every week. "I guess that mountain was a little higher than I thought." As a result, being an economic expert seems to be an ideal job. You can say anything and never be fired. "It's clear to me that in five years the US currency will switch from dollars to live sheep."
