Numbers only have meaning when they are numbers of things that have

OK, forget it.

Promise?

There is no point to argue with you if you believe that one can argue
economics without math, equations, models or numbers.

That is religion.

I didn't say that. I simply disputed your false and idiotic claim
that there is no content in economics, or any other science, other
than equations. The result of trying to substitute numbers and
equations for understanding is all too obvious in your posts: you
understand nothing whatever of economics, and your religious faith
that randomly fabricated numbers and equations are more scientifically
useful than clear statements of fact prevents you from ever learning
any economics.
