Economics Seminars

What - Economics seminars this summer

Economics, politics, business, history, freedom.
Principles of trade, public choice, money.
If any of those words pique your interest, you may benefit from looking up the free economics seminars offered by the Foundation for Economic Education (FEE).

FEE is a non-profit based in New York.
They teach free market economics -- primarily Libertarian views. Some of their main points are private property, individual liberty, the rule of law, the free market, and importance of the individual and individual choice.

Why:

If you want a better understanding of our economy, how markets work together -- trade -- and politics move and mix, how markets go up and down and what some indicators of that are, so you can be successful personally, in work, and as a voter.

If you value freedom and want to understand how freedom is taken away and what can be done to take it back.

Media often misrepresents what's really going on, so it's important you can tell for yourself.
