No. Economics is the child of math, not a sibling. It's only half math. The other parent is philosophy/creative writing. That's how you end up with the myth of barter and trickle-down, the stuff based on speculative storytelling, that refuse to listen to math.

I actually would like economics more if I didn't have dyscalculia.

Economics is the fakest science ever. It's just perpetuating the capitalist scheme. Don't waste your time learning it. It'll all be irrelevant in the end anyways.
