This isn’t a question, it’s a comment on the topic of your post on Trade Not Aid. You say in the very beginning that it’s based around free trade. But it’s not. This concept was developed around FAIR trade. There’s a massive difference between the two. Free trade focuses on the reduction of barriers and policies that favor certain countries or industries. Fair trade focuses on the rights of workers, improved working conditions and fair payment of goods. Fair trade goes a lot farther than aid by providing long-term economic opportunities for artisans, farmers, and producers in developing countries. So yeah, trade – as long as it’s fair – is better than aid.
Hello,
Please how can I explain the covid 19 pandemics in economics taking into consideration the government, economy, and the world at large
Hello,
so this question is based on the different types of 3 bank deposits (term deposit, cheque deposit and savings accounts deposit) and how they affect the supply of money in an economy. Personally I understand the concept and know how bank deposits affect the supply of money in an economy. What I don’t understand is how each individual type of bank deposit affect the supply of money. What is the difference between how each of them affect the supply of money. Can you please help explain.
hii:)) is it correct to say expansionary monetary policy could lower cost-push inflation? since it could lower costs of firms that have a loan (since firms pay back less interest), and lowered costs could be passed on in lower prices which lowers cost-push inflation? thanks so much and i hope you have a great day 🙂

Hi,
Is it possible for a government owned monopoly (e.g natural monopoly) to not face diseconomies of scale even in the long-run? And if it were possible how might governments achieve this – through constant subsidisation?
