Today’s post will be short (here’s the reason behind it): I’ve got a theory – hear me out. My theory is, if you don’t know you’re injured, you won’t feel the pain. About a month back, I stubbed my toe on my drawer, and lost a chunk of meat in the toe (I have meaty fat toes!). . . . → Read More: Knowledge of Injury Regular readers know I really love Terry Pratchett’s works. I’ve often talked about the great man’s works. Today, courtesy of Tyler, I give you another reason why you should just [heart] that fellow. I present you Nicholas Barbon. According to Wikipedia, Nicholas Barbon (c. 1640 – 1698) (Full name: Nicholas Unless-Jesus-Christ-Had-Died-For-Thee-Thou-Hadst-Been-Damned Barbon) was an English economist, physician and . . . → Read More: I [heart] Terry Pratchett For Star Wars Fans Who Love Economics, i.e. me: What good is all your uncle’s work if the Empire takes it over? You know they’ve already started to nationalize commerce in the central systems?

Ironically, Pressyo‘s economic base is mostly macroeconomics. But I didn’t have to deal with stuff like unemployment. I’d say it has a very strong micro foundation.
