Need Help Finding Good Sites About Economics (Vanity)
12-08-2004 | marblehead17

Posted on 12/08/2004 4:19:39 PM PST by marblehead17

I'm in a debate with a DUmmy and would appreciate recommendations of good sites that address econ issues. I've used the BLS site, but would like conservative sites that offer data and analysis.


TOPICS: Business/Economy; Education; History
KEYWORDS: analysis; econ; employmentdata; gdp; historicaldate

You do, of course, realize that we are completely doomed.

A "debate" with a DUmmy ain't possible...your premise, then, is oxymoronic at best, futile at worst..

So you've reached your conclusion and now you are seeking facts to support your conclusion.

Interesting.

Good point. I regularly nail him so bad that he quits responding. Now I want to drive the final stake into the heart. Could really use info of historical consumer debt vs. income.

I was being sarcastic. The economy is on a on fire, but many ignore the facts.

Glad you realized that my comment was tongue in cheek. I was NOT disparaging you, though you might have more success, and enjoyment, talking to a wall..

I looked at some of your links. Thanks. I have a degree in Economics and the book lists, though appreciated, are not exactly what I'm looking for. Mostly, I'm looking for a site that provides concise and centralized data that has some analysis.
