What's the point of /c/economics? (lemmy.world)

A few observations about this community:

Most posts are economics-related news posts
not many (recent) posts about actual economics (though I haven't read many of the news posts, I'm guessing most don't go into much depth on the economic implications)
No description in the sidebar
No mods

I'd be pretty keen on a more theoretical economics community. Would it make sense to have a separate economic_theory community? Or would it be better to make a separate economic_news community?

Does anyone want to mod this community? Perhaps @MicroWave@lemmy.world or @cm0002@lemmy.world , since you two post a lot?

I can jump in as a mod if needed. I am the quiet mod type, but can quickly mitigate any issues that pop up. Was a mod of a couple large subs on Reddit and exist as a mod on 196 to help mitigate larger issues when they happen. For the most part, I don't deal with user to user issues since voting can rectify those problems.
