As economists (casual and professional), do we put too much faith in our methodology and some of theorems to the point where we can no longer support our intuition with sound theory? Has economic theory become a religion we follow instead of a science we advance?

Kind of philisophical, but would enjoy opinions.

Have you seen the new BP Oil ads on tv? It's a cartoonish one with four babies driving a car. So what they are trying to promote is gasoline use not only by those of legal driving age, but they want to see infants behind the wheel, using up that ole precious gas. You know darn good and well babies will see this commercial, and while their parents are sleeping late on a Saturday morning, sneak out and pick up their little toddler friends and just have a hayday on the road. Thanks EVER so much BP for not only creating more of a shortage of oil, but potentially endangering the lives of people on the road even more.

Okay, let's say we have a $15 Target gift certificate. So it's worth $15 dollars, right? But then again, it can't be worth as much as $15 dollars cash because you can only use it on specific things. So how much is it really worth? How do I determine its worth?

I am writing an economics lesson plan on budgeting. One of the exercises I want to do involves making a budget for an "average" American. Is there a site out there which will tell me what the average American makes and what he/she spends on average on things like housing, food, clothing, grooming, medicine, entertainment, etc.? I really don't want to research these things individually.

From book definition it seems to me that inflation is a tax on the rich, but not sure the academic translation lives up in the real world
