Economics is concerned with the optimal distribution of resources in society. The subject involves

• Understanding what happens in markets and the macroeconomy.
• Examining statistics about the state of the economy and explaining their significance
• Understanding different policy options and evaluating their likely outcomes.

We go to work, we start businesses, but it could all be in vain unless we learn the simple concept of: Owning and controlling the access to resources the economy is willing to pay you for.
