Not just Hanson - libertarian economists *really, really hate* epidemiology and epidemiologists telling them "no". Tyler Cowen's first question: ARE EPIDEMIOLOGISTS JUST BEING PAID TO SAY THINGS ARE BAD?!?!! Also, what were their GREs? Huh?? Huh??? Also, how thick is the Academic Market????

@ESYudkowsky "Story concept: AU where capitalism actually works the way the illiberal left thinks it does. Almost the entire economy is still medieval peasants in mud huts; their crops are scarce and valuable but merchants' buying prices bear no relation to supply/demand; kings have iPhones."

And he still can't extend it a sliver of charity. (https://slatestarcodex.com/2019/03/18/book-review-inventing-the-future/)
