Uh .. hu. Yes the leftist economists also have a bias towards lying to the public and their bosses. They are a fine crew of minions. My BS meter pegs out on a lot of government statistics, especially in economic areas.
As it should, but even amongst government economists there are degrees of wrongness.

Are you willing to lay the problems in theory, or problems with personnel? Or problems with groupthink in the BLS and government?
reply
What I've heard is that the BLS had more of an explicitly Marxist founding, which still persists culturally. That's why a more neutral organization was created, the Bureau of Economic Analysis, to do less biased work.

If it is a government agency or department, it has the same problems due to the “long march through the institutions”. The communists have taken over most of the institutions, especially for the analysis of economic data.
BTW, I think Keynes was a communist and his General Theory is just a justification for totalitarian states.
