Economics are arithmetical facts:

and history an interpretative smear.

Some historians blend

those texts through conjecture

of what should be made solid and clear.

I agree with Ray definitely thought provoking which kind of raises that eternal question what is truth, that which is so often manipulated to suit the needs and beliefs of others like a certain individual across the water.
Nice one Tommy
