      Dude I have an engineering background. I wanted learn about economics as a whole, just for the sake of knowledge. Can you recommend something to me. Where should I start from?

    • @al_gc1703
      @al_gc1703 Місяць тому

      @ For practical background:
      - Read newspappers: Forbes, The Economist, Finánciale Times.
      For academic journals:
      - Read academic papers on: Jstor or Google Scholar
      For Textbooks
      - Principles of Economics by N. Gregory Mankiw
      - Freakonomics by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubne
      There are plenty of materials and courses available, but for me, as someone who is more practical, I prefer to regularly read the news and analyze why certain phenomena are happening. For instance, I try to question and investigate why Wall Street fell or what happened with tax and inflation rates during COVID. However, if you're more focused on theory, I highly recommend looking into textbooks, academic journals, and specialized courses.

    I wish it were possible when citing (un)employment figures to include only private sector employment. Although it’s good that public/USG sector folks have jobs, the output of those jobs provides no additive value to GDP. So, in 2021-23 as many thousands of government jobs were created, it disingenuously depicted increased employment while frustrating the nation’s recovery from the effects of lockdowns by adding to the cost/size of government, the verticality of processes (inefficiency), and the morass of regulatory overreach.

    The less interest rate, means the more demand cause the people feel more "wealthier" and can borrow more. And for the company, it means a chance to earn more by providing more goods/services, and the cost of it will be lower since the interest for borrowing is decline. so it will employ more. Isn't it?
