One of the first economists who made sense to me.

Midwits have interpreted his Thinking Fast and Slow (and most of the Behavioral Economics) as a call to arms against the intuition and common sense.

In the subsequent years, it was almost guaranteed that any mention of the world "bias" comes hand in hand with a technocratically planned solution. Behavioral Econ became just a justification for the central planning.

Fortunately, it has phased out, and we're living in the uprising of the left curve in last years.

I think Kahneman must have been enjoying this rebalancing.
