I have a somewhat better way. Place economics on a sufficiently rigorous empirical foundation, so that it is (let us say) somewhere near the level of quantum physics.
Having done this (monumental) task, we can now answer questions about historical events in economics as well as we can answer questions about historical events in physics—e.g. “Why is that laser red?” “Why did those interference fringes form here and not there?”
