Macroeconomics: Crash Course Economics #5
Economy | Information | History | Online | Facts | World | Global | Money
This week, Adriene and Jacob teach you about macroeconomics. This is the stuff of big picture economics, and the major movers in the economy. Like taxes and monetary policy and inflation and policy. We need this stuff, because if you don't have a big picture of the economy, crashes and panics are more likely. Of course, economics is extremely complex and unpredictable. Today we'll talk about GDP as a measure of a country's economic health, the basics of economic analysis, and even a little about full employment, unemployment Crash Course is on Patreon!

Lower prices will make people want to buy less coz they'll expect prices to drop further? How did economists come to that conclusion?

12:32 namco in Greece is a joke, i mean they stopped production before the hosts were born...

Isn't it wrong for economies to be considered healthy if they are growing? Growth requires an increase in resources used and in products created and bought. So the current macroeconomic policies promote overproduction of breakable products, requires overpopulation and promotes waste instead of sustainable resources. Shouldn't macroeconomists think of a more sustainable way for the states to control and redirect the economic system to a more sustainable market?

Thank you for making this video, but I also want to thank the editors because it takes quite some time piecing together footage and editing in the music and sound effects and transitions as smoothly as they're done. So thanks : )

Why don't you slow down a bit and make your videos that bit longer, that way we might have time to process the information.
