  • Probe inflation, price indexes, and interest rates to see how inflation is caused by printing too much money.
  • Explore the business cycle and why recessions happen.
  • Find out what government should or shouldn’t do to fight recessions using tools like stimulus spending and fiscal and monetary policy.
  • Understand that borrowing and debt drive price bubbles and financial crises and why fiscal and monetary policy don’t work very well after a financial crisis.
