It's neither, you retard.
It's a social science.

Why are you trying to learn economics in your spare time?

In two years, you will be able to go to an employer and let them know "Yeah, I studied economics in my free time."

It's a social science.

Seems legitimate, go for it.

Why would you want to study economics in your free time? One, it won't get you a job anywhere, and two, obviously you have no intention of reading Mises. So at the end of the day you're just going to be walking around with these weird pretensions of how government spending spurs the economy into action and why the Federal Reserve is a necessary instrument for economic progress.

Why not just start learning chess or physics in your off time? Both are much more interesting and will at the very least serve you at some point in your life. Better yet, read some classic literature.

Well, within 3 years I'm taking the diplomacy test in my country and I should know general economics in depth.
