Overview

"In my day, movies only cost a nickel!” Principles like inflation can explain this and other major changes, and we need economists to apply them. It’s no secret that we’re facing a crisis in our national economy. You know who’s looking to hire people like you? Presidents. Heads of state. Leaders who need to know what to do to save the wallets of not just one business but of a community or a nation.
