Educating people about economics

[philmophlegm]

Long-term readers of this blog may remember that a few years ago, I wrote a series of posts about economics with the intention of educating my fellow humans. After all, most people would consider knowledge of economics to be important - especially when deciding who to vote for - but few people study it at school or university.

I haven't done any of those posts in ages - mostly because I'm busier at the moment than I was back then. This post isn't one of my own, but it is a link to a remarkably good article that someone pointed me at. It's a post about economics on (of all places) an arts blog. The writer is "beseeching" art people to learn economics. He could just as easily beseech everyone else. Fab article.
