If "endogeneity" is too big of a word for you, let me illustrate with an example.
"Because high-crime areas have more cops on the street, cops cause crime to go up."

I'm a lawyer.
If you think economics is not a "warm and fuzzy" type of thing you are sadly deluded. It's social science, which, as I'm sure the real scientists here will verify, is not science at all. Moreover, you probably only got a BS in it. I minored in econ, so there.
In any event, between you and me there is only one of us who comes here pretending to be something he is not.
