Ill add more to this later, as the whole notion of formal mathematical models within economics is part of a century old struggle that is deeply involved in most of the political questions of the day, but I just wanted to mention a quote by Kenneth Boulding: "Mathematics brought rigor to Economics. Unfortunately, it also brought mortis."
