Debunking ‘Economics’
Scared of the word economics? We have
been told for forty years that only very clever
professors and computers can understand
it. Television and newspaper statistics
leave us cold. This is all quite deliberate
and constructed to alienate us from what
economics and the economy really are.
People are the economy, the economy is
deeply political.
Enjoy two days that will equip you with a
greater understanding of the real economy
and the nonsense that the employers and
governments speak about it. What is value?
What is a wage? How are prices really set?
What is profit? Why are public sector cuts
completely unnecessary and dangerous?
