Kaletsky:
In the search for the “guilty men” responsible for the near-collapse of the global economy, one obvious group of scapegoats has escaped blame: the economists.

So we have an economist (Hudson) condeming PhD economists,
a writer/columnist (Kaletsky) condemning PhD economists
Mathematician/scientist (Taleb) condemning economists and MBAs (and lots of "hard science" guys plowing the economic field)
Me, I think Stalin, Hitler, Darth Maul and Palatine must have been economists (vegetarians too, but we'll deal with one evil at a time).
