Basic Economics?

The Function of Profits and The Mirage of Inflation

Next, Jeffrey Tucker brings Joseph Salerno, Professor of Economics at Pace University in New York City, into the discussion to cover Chapters 22 and 23.  They discuss how a company’s profits are derived and how they function in the overall economy, along with how inflation works.
