Economics is basic to our freedom, and is very influential in determining whom we elect.  Countries that lack economic freedom often lack religious freedom.  If we lack rights in deciding what career to go into, then we will lack rights of worship also.

While many associate economics with money, economics has powerful insights that go far beyond money.  Economics has teachings about the nature of time, marginal value, utility, and many other concepts that we will discuss throughout this course.  One concept in particular, the "Coase theorem" (developed in 1960), is an economic insight that is powerful far beyond issues of money.
