"if you're broker knew what stock to buy he wouldn't be working" - This guy is awesome!!!!! Love it.

[@mehmetalisamur5377]

His explanation is very accurate and clear. Mimics and the gestures also keep you away during class. Wow, good teacher for economics.

[@cyanrazorCel]

Education is moving toward free online videos.

[@jasonlau5028]

Hi, Dr. Mitchell, you have a lot of real life examples to illustrate the economics theories. Its really helpful for students to understand difficult knowledge by your simple ways of explanations! good! And its free lectures!

[@MLeoM]

Very good basics were explained in a very good way with backstory. Excellent presentation of the problems and how economics is going to help it. Loved the video.

I see a lot of criticism in the comments for no reasons. Some failed to understand. Some were judgemental way to quickly towards his way of teaching. And some were judgemental of the looks and characteristic of professor (it is a philosophical fallacy to criticize something by arguing against the person presenting it.)

[@saeids.6364]

Thanks Missouri State for macroeconomics course. There is no lecture from other universities on youtube.

[@dangerous_ideas16]

Can't there be a co-existence of both approaches (positive and normative)? Isn't it obvious that sometimes we have to make value judgements? Otherwise how can you separate economic goods from economic bads without making any value judgement?

[@roc7880]

spreading knowledge thanks Missouri

[@vkrgfan]

Actually, he comes from an economist point of view. He said that majority don’t read a text book anyway, why waste money? If you can get one for pennies.

[@emmk4992]

Completely agree. I bought 2 expensive books before pandemic and haven't opened a Page yet. And I can get those in E-Books for free.

Dear friends, I have a question: 1 / For countries with a competitive advantage, labor is cheap. Currently, labor costs increase and cost of living increases, how can the country continue to attract foreign investment (FDI) and maintain GDP growth from 10 to 15% per year?

[@nischaysoni7689]

as we can see with the china the same thing is happening, the labor is not so cheap anymore 1. the govt tries to acquire the raw products at a cheap price, so the price of final product does not increse that much, with the expansion policy govt acquires more land hence acquiring more resource as well. 2.2nd would be ofcourse investing heavily on science and tech.

[@Ibn_Abdulaziz]

Scarcity in input (humans getting raw material) and scarcity in output (humans turning those raw materials into goods and services). That is what is scarce. As for saying that the world has limited sustenance, then this is disbelief of saying that God is a miser. Allah ﷻ sends it down by measure, if the wealth were to have expanded, the people would've oppressed one another. Meaning, the scarcity part is human ability in input and output and not the sustenance that was measured for mankind 50 000 years before the existence of the heavens and earth. And it is sent down by way of measure and wisdom by Allah ﷻ. Every human generation have had cattle and fruits, Allah ﷻ revives the barren land and produces sustenance for all generations just like rain and snow are not scarce. I saw an old video from 1800s, people selling fruit and it reminded me of how easy it is for Allah ﷻ to revive things back to life. And like that will the Resurrection for the Day of Judgement be. Meaning, your food is a reminder and evidence against you from saying that you will turn to dust and non-existence.

[@Ibn_Abdulaziz]

Allah سبحانه وتعالى said, (Interpretation of the meaning) And if Allah were to enlarge the provision for His servants, they would surely rebel on the earth, but He sends it down by measure as He wills. Verily! He is in respect of His servants, the Well-Aware, the All-Seer (of things that benefit them). [Ash-Shura' 42:27] And We have provided therein means of living for you and for those whom you provide not [moving (living) creatures, cattle, beasts, and other animals]. And there is not a thing, but with Us are the stores of it. And We send it not down except in a known measure. And We send the winds fertilizing (to fill heavily the clouds with water), then We cause the water (rain) to descend from the sky, and We give it to you to drink, and it is not you who are the owners of its stores. And certainly We! It is We who give life and cause death, and We are the Inheritors. [Al-Hijr 15:20-23] We know that which the earth takes of them (their dead bodies), and with Us is a Book preserved (i.e. the Book of Decrees). [Qaf 50:4] And among His Signs (in this), is that you see the earth barren; but when We send down water (rain) to it, it is stirred to life and growth. Verily, He Who gives it life, is surely, Able to give life to the dead (on the Day of Resurrection). Indeed He is Able to do all things. [Fussilat 41:39] Is it they who would portion out the Mercy of your Lord? It is We Who portion out between them their livelihood in this world, and We raised some of them above others in ranks, so that some may employ others in their work. But the Mercy (Paradise) of your Lord (O Muhammad ﷺ) is better than the (wealth of this world) which they amass. [Az-Zukhruf 43:32] Believe in Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ), and spend (in Sadaqah, Zakat) from that which He has made you trustees. And such of you as believe and spend (in Allah's Way), theirs will be a great reward. [Al-Hadeed 57:7] Jannah 'Adn (Eden, Everlasting Gardens of Paradise) which the Most Gracious has promised to His servants in the Ghaib (Unseen): Verily His Promise must come to pass. [Maryam 19:61]

[@lordhelmit1499]

Why?

[@MLeoM]

@@lordhelmit1499 Exactly!! Why would one stop watching a video where the professor clearly distinguishes "legend/rumor/myth" with the rest of his material by literally mentioning it. It just shows how reliable his work is, as he's is describing everything that's the science of economics and separates the legend. Which makes it trustworthy.... Some people have a psychological tendency to believe people who don't mention the words "legend" but still go over lots and lots of unfounded things. Yet trustworthy true things when separated by the presenter is untrustworthy? LOL.... That's why one needs to be a thinker, and a critical thinker to not judge something off badly too quickly before even looking into (in proper ways).

[@taxifaninternational7636]

Natural resources are NOT LIMITED ! Goods and services are NOT LIMITED ! Everyone has clothes and lives in a housing, everyone has a everything they need in the house (fridge, stove, furniture, etc), and there are a lot of more of them in the stores. And we can even produce more services and goods. The problem in the world is the chronic lack of money, both for the people and the countries, all are in debts up to their eyeballs. In fact we do not even have an economy around the world. What we have is chrematistics. The real economy is Nonprofit Resource Based Economy created by Dmitry Bonch - google it. ... And how we can eliminate the scarcity if it exists must be decided by science and technology, not by the economists. The job of the economists is how to make the rich richer and keep the poor in check so that they would not protest too much.

[@MLeoM]

Economics *is* the science and study of making the most of what is available. What is produced, in what combination, and in how much quantity is it produced, and how to get the most output for the less cost. It's explained by this practical science. The money, is necessary so you *can* give a certain value to your products depending on how hard it is to produce, what was the cost and what materials were used, and how much was the production output and how much of the product is needed by a others etc. To enable good trade money is needed as units of value for the product *determined by the demand and supply of it* and different factors that are in play. Everything you said, every issue is covered and every problem is solved in economics, you're criticizing it without understanding it or studying it.... Again price isn't determined by economists, that's a false presumption, and it's automatically determined in fully competitive market other where people (producers) can make more and sell it for cheap, that isn't possible if the thing is rare, and if it's necessary, then people have to pay high price for it, otherwise how are you going to meet and distribute the small amount of necessary things you have in this case. At the same time, if something else, even of no necessity, is selling (because people have the propensity to consume and spend money to attain it and does so) then the sellers don't lower the price even if they have lots of the same thing. (this is a problem but again in fully competitive market, for selling more with small profit margin, another producer is going to rise, and sell more eventually because people would buy the same thing from a cheaper producer and with sales lowered the first producers would have no other choice to price the product down to meet the competition).... 1) If resources are "NOT LIMITED" people won't need to spend anything as it is not necessary if you can get it. If it is then your theory falls apart. If everything is available, no one would work for it and get paid and pay for products..... Economics LITERALLY IS the science of understanding how we humans live our lives better with limited resources... Remember you wouldn't have to pay a high price for a necessary thing that is less produced. Ask them why do they cost more. No one would buy anything if everything was available for a cheaper price or free. All the furniture, housing, fridges you mentioned are produced which also needed materials which were also produced and to get it one had to pay for it, the money which that person attained by producing something or by giving service....
