Common Sense Economics: What Everyone Should Know about Wealth and Prosperity
of James D. Gwartney, Richard L. Stroup
Description
* Do taxes help more than they hurt?* What effect does redistributing wealth have on our economy---and those who participate in its redistribution?* What is the role of government?* How does an economy work? James Gwartney, Richard L. Stroup, and Dwight R. Lee are three of the most prominent economists today, and in "Common Sense Economics" they show us why economic understanding is an essential ingredient for life in today's society, a key element that empowers those who possess it to better take charge of their own lives and their own responsibilities to their society. In clear, powerful language free of any hint of jargon or obscurity, they illuminate the basic principles of supply and demand, private ownership, trade, and more. In a world where free trade, taxes, and government spending are issues everyone needs to understand, "Common Sense Economics" is a lucid, simple explanation of how and why our economy and our world work the way they do, and how and why individuals and nations prosper.
