So basically, economists are like weather forecasters. They can only explain an event after it happens. They have no predictive power at all.

Lots of audio books on YouTube too.

Try Cormac McCarthy's The Crossing. Most of the dialog is in Spanish and McCarthy's style makes it impossible to draw context. If you don't know Spanish, The Crossing will drive you to fury.

You'll remember and laugh about this for decades.
For our first Thanksgiving after we married, we were too broke for turkey, so I bought a whole canned chicken. I heated it still sealed in the can until it bulged, so when I punctured the can, broth and steam sprayed all over the kitchen, on the ceiling and window and appliances. When I finally took the lid off, the chicken was dry as paper in a little pile in the bottom of the can, more bones than chicken.
We still laugh about it after 57 years.
