Economics

Sandor, blogging for me, points me at this article, which I think is pretty much right -- understanding and applying sound economic principles is absolutely essential to dealing with the problem of poverty. It's a shame more people don't understand that, and a shame that economics doesn't get more emphasis in education. It's more important than the last two years of history most students see, and probably the last three years of English, and *gasp* maybe even more important than the last year or two of math most students see.
