Here's a funny and entertaining piece a friend sent me about two of the major (and conflicting) thoughts on economics. Even an econ neophyte like me found this entertaining, educational, and something that I could grasp. :-)
Enjoy!!!

That was pretty awesome :) Makes me want to go read both of their books now!

Oh yes, this is great, I saw it last week and the first thing I did was send it to my favorite radio talk show host because it's right up his alley. I had considered sending it to FMF but figured I was in his doghouse, so better to not say anything. I think I found it on a PF blog but I'm not sure of that.

Terry --
I got it originally from NPR.
Also, you're only in the doghouse when you leave a string of "woe is me" comments on several posts in succession. Other than that, you're fine.

That was very good, thanks for posting it. I found it very interesting and something I could understand. Like Brendan I am now motivated to learn more.

I've already burned a few CDs of the song to hand out to friends.
"C, I, G, all together gets to Y"
What a great way to teach the formula for aggregate demand! I hope they cut an albumn :)
