I’ve been studying economics this school year along with my two teenaged sons in our homeschool. We listened to a lecture the other day during which Nobel Laureate economist Robert E. Lucas, Jr., was quoted. After hearing our president’s remarks on the occasion of his second inauguration, I felt compelled to go back and listen… more
I think about 120 seconds is all it is likely to take to understand what’s going on with the unemployment rate. Let’s say 30 seconds seconds per image and any accompanying text: Let’s start with something that confirms skepticism expressed about the unemployment number reported on October 5, 2012, which was 7.8%, and provides necessary… more
