Hi, I am a young student and am going on to university soon. I am interested in helping causes and organisations like unions and such for a profession. I thought of doing political science, but that's not very agreeable to my parents. So I thought of doing economics however I'm not sure how employable a pure economics degree is and whether or not I can stomache the neoliberal economics. If anyone could provide some of your own experiences and help me I would appreciate it.

The few econ students I knew at my uni wanted to work for one of the big accounting firms like Deloitte and whatnot. One of them was able to do that, another went to study law in US. Not sure about the rest.
