Hard disagree on this. The gap between the levels of statistical significance you get in economics vs physics is massive. They're not at the same levels of inevitability. The predictive power of the laws of physics vs the laws of economics is vastly different.

Absolutely not- that is ridiculous.
Let's take "supply and demand" for example. Supply and demand only applies when you assume greed and capitalism. In a different social construct, the traditional supply & demand completely falls apart. But the problem is economics is presented as some sort of fact of nature. It just reinforces survival of the fittest instead of society that helps everyone.
Increasing prices because of demand is not the law of the land- it's a greed of humans that you normalize and make acceptable.
The laws of economics have the kind of inevitability you expect from the laws of physics. Disrespect them at your own peril.
