La ciencia humilde

There is no doubt that we live in a world governed by economic phenomena: unemployment, inflation, fiscal policy, the price of money, markets, interest rates, monetary policy, the role of the State, world distribution of the rent or the nature of the laws of the market. These phenomena affect and condition our lives every day of the year. And, nevertheless, we do not know well the mechanisms of the economy, which seem to us a matter of brainy specialists. But why are we afraid of economic science? Yes, it's very easy! It's about applying common sense and running away from topics.
