I think that most people smart enough to understand that economic policy, while representing a nations ideals and hopes (along with presenting a rebuttal against foreign competition), should not be based on what any one group believes to be the right thing to do, but rather, based on what data suggests would be the correct thing to do. Obviously mistakes will be made in understanding what the data suggests–that is a human…

Obama’s latest effort to unite the 99.9% was a good attempt at trying to bridge a gap that is often poorly understood. However, he still managed to frame the argument in a have vs have not (rich vs the rest of us) template, which ultimately, doesn’t do too much.

Why Race Matters: Understanding Race and Human Variation Understanding the concepts or reality of race is often perilous and fraught due to both sensitive truths and uncertain conclusions which pose a difficult challenge in maintaining an equal, and balanced, perspective.

But when society, and too, the economy, is built…

Dear Readers, I’d like to welcome and introduce you to Corporus Net and myself–Economister. I’m an economics undergrad and an intern at Morgan Stanley. I’ve been into finance and investing since I was but a wee child, and while I took different academic/career paths (spent some time  majoring in engineering), I decided that I should just pursue that which I already am familiar with–finance, vis-a-vis economics. Corporus Net is my…
