Well since neoclassical economic theory encompasses such a broad range of theories, many of them conflicting, you're probably right that most economists subscribe to at least something coming under the broad banner of neoclassical economics.
No economic theory has yet been proven to be infallible so it doesn't matter which theory you pick, they kind of all come undone.

I think we just said the same thing - no one really knows whats going to happen next
