Economists are certainly better than civil and mechanical engineers.
Yes
Engineers are brainlets who couldn't into physics or mathematics. Economists are critical thinkers who use mathematics as a tool
I hate engineers who think they have it all figured out about economics because they read some crackpot book from Mises or Rothbard or the like. I also hate economists who are nothing more than political propagandists fanatically pushing their master's agenda.
I don't hate people because they belong to a certain profession. I just hate useful idiots who lack humility and even worst then them, intellectually dishonest people.
Economists are usually pretty smart, but they spew a lot of dogma. Just like Catholic priests.

It depends on the individual. Everyone gets the same amount of respect unless they happen to be an asshole.
If you are talking about intellectual esteem, that also depends on the individual, asshole.

No, which is surprising, since that's not a really high bar.
