Learning from others isn't scary or evil. You might try it.
So far it would seem that learning in general presents a problem for Eric the Obtuse. So far his knowledge of science is at the sixteenth or seventeenth century when astrology was state of the art. If his knowledge of economics was at the same level of the Spanish Scholastics of the sixteenth century it would be an improvement over his current complete lack of knowledge in the subject.
Learning for Eric the Obtuse is a recreational impossibility like flying would be for the rest of us. As a consequence this situation is unlikely to improve.
