Of course they should, but they rarely do, because most people who are "trained" economists are mouthpieces of the bourgeoisie. They believe that competitive markets lead to the efficient allocation of resources, that money is the measure of all things, and people are paid in proportion to their contribution to society. But surely you know this. Why do you keep asking?
