Fast forward. Finally stopped feeling sorry for myself, got over my depression, got saved, fast forward I’m 2 classes away from finishing my high school diploma and going to college next. Economics is one of the 2 classes left. I can’t believe I never took this class. It’s literally changing my life for the better.♥️ God Bless.

ECONOMICS is the study of people and choices. OPPORTUNITY COST is whatever you give up to do something. SCARCITY is the tension between infinite wants and finite resources. INCENTIVES is a set of external (rather than intrinsic) motivators that explain people's choices. MACROECONOMICS is the study of production, employment, prices, and policies on a nationwide scale. MICROECONOMICS is the study of how consumers, workers, and firms interact to generate outcomes in specific markets.

Jacob and Adrienne, please ignore all these hateful comments. I literally did not feel one negative feeling towards anything in this video. I seriously can not understand what is so bad about this video. It covered everything my Economics teacher did, but it didn't take 45 minutes, so I don't get why people are complaining that you aren't teaching anything yet. I needed this broad context, because I finally know why I need to study Economics: mainly to understand that life is satisfying my unlimited wants with limited resources, how to consider the costs of everything, and understanding how we need governments to keep incentives straight and also provide additional ones.

Over the next 40 weeks? I have 32 hours to learn everything for my Econ midterm.

Love the entire series as well as the individual videos Clifford does. He not only made it possible to pass Economics in college, but I use these videos to help reinforce the material for my own students. That way they have them for when they get home, and may become confused about a concept.

I don't remember picking Economics as a subject and yet here I am, having a break down and hoping to god Crash Course will help me pass. I'm so screwed...

Please say the rest of this series isn't going to be this patronising. I love economics, I love crash course and I really do try to give things a good chance before I switch off but I just couldn't make it past the section on opportunity cost without thinking that maybe this wasn't a great use of my time. I have no desire to be mean or unkind and I have no doubt the presenters, script writers, editors, director and everyone else are brilliant people who work increadibly hard but this is just a huge shift in tone from the other crash course series. One of the assets of crash course is that it could be light hearted with great content without the usual talking down to the audience that you see in school/educational videos. Please don't lose that. And thank you for all your hard work.

This crash course made economics sooo approachable for me, eased me into the stock market and literary changed my life. This fact this knowledge is free is a godsend. I HAVE to donate to this channel.

Jeroen Bollen Do you really have a better option, which actually works in reality? Capitalism on itself works just fine and natural, it is when strong elements of corporatism is mixed in to it or someone (like the state) goes in and bail out a loosing part (like a bank) things fuck up. Capitalism is at least the most innovative economic system when it works properly. Central planed socialism on other hand have time and time again failed to satisfy peoples real needs in a real world context. Mixed economic systems only work well when you let it play by capitalisms rules, where the state keeps its hands off, and are not trying to actively steer markets into crating something for which there are no real demand, or force it to "beat a dead horse". Regulations works best when they are general, absolute, but at the same time somewhat loose. There are on the other hand plenty of examples of "socialist" ideas benefiting greatly from the capitalist supply and demand system, creating innovative solutions as they go along often spontaneously, "sharing economy" for instance, is one such example... :)

On Rat Tails: during the this year's drought in the Philippines, rice farmers started to starve. Crops were dying, and so were the animals. (There was a mass shooting of farmers who rallied asking the government for aid.) Latern on in certain provinces, there was a bounty on rat tails. For every X number of rat tails submitted, they would be given Y kilograms of rice. The farmers submitted rat tails for rice, and then they roasted the rat bodies for meat. Just an example of how a failed incentive policy elsewhere worked under a different context.

That is economics. If you want to study economics or learn it in school you have to know that its just maths that can be applied in the real world. So you should like or at least be able to tolerate mathematics.

Please be balanced. Can you present both sides? I mean, not just the Keynsian/Krugman side. Mention the Chicago School/Milton Friedman side as well.

This is a small complaint but can you please not add "and women" into every quote that uses the word man from now on. Usually when someone uses the word man in the context of the quotes you showed it usually means is just another way of referring to the human race as a whole. It is almost never meant as a way to exclude women and I find that changing the quotes in this particular way to be both distraction from the quotes themselves and kind of pointless. I am not trying to start an argument here but this is just my opinion on this subject.

Now I'm a public servant working in one of the national government agencies in my country and I'm planning to take Masters in Economics to further my knowledge and skills on economics 😊

You guys are fantastic! I took a macroeconomics course in. college in spring and it was one of my favorite classes! It taught me that economics isn't a philosophy; it can be understood. Monetary policy and fiscal policy have real, measurable outcomes that can be predicted and explained, and the aggregate supply-aggregate demand model can show what the economy is doing at any time in simple terms.

What is Macro Economics? - Is the study of production, employment, prices, and policies on a nationwide scale. 5.

Steven! What are you doing in the comments section? XD

Thanks for putting in the hard work in making these videos and a shoutout to the awesome hosts. I look forward on taking the journey and learning all about economics. Being a neuroscience major this wasn't something that I studied and after watching the Green brothers they inspired me to learn more things outside of my field. Keep up the good work and thanks for providing free, insightful, and entertaining education to us. Cheers!

Actually, in my school, there's not many economics classes (just 2, including mine). Both teachers do a great job at keeping it free, it doesn't feel like a regular subject. The teachers leave it free and open, and it's up to us to catch the tail through our own interest, and that, I think, makes it very effective for studying.

You two are great! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and enthusiasm!

You guys should do one that focuses on Entrepreneurship and business! That would be awesome!

So educational ! This series is pure gold ! Please cover more topics if possible :)

these vids from crash course video ARE SO HELPFUL!!! I'm grateful that this Channel existed!

My teacher is actually making us watch this video from home

Thanks for doing this. I minored in economics but it's nice to have a refresher plus it's just fun. Reading let's say the WSJ or Financial Times and understanding the underlying concepts is awesome

I am not watching this if it consistently has wrong-sounding muppets

Joey Burt If that's going to be this show's eagle punching, that will get very annoying. I mean, they could hire the guys from Glove and Boots... =p

Johnson Taylor Woah calm down, that's a lot of rage over somebody saying they didn't like the muppet gag. Edit: Joey Burt isn't implying that they owed him anything. He just said the Muppets were a deal breaker for him, I'm sure he doesn't expect Crash Course to get rid of it just because he doesn't like it. Also just because Crash Course is wonderful doesn't mean there aren't aspects of it that could use improving.

Johnny is on his period!

when i was taking economics i was miserable but here this video makes, all this sound extremely interesting! great job, i loved the video

when you came here to study *sees meme* me *this.. does bring a smile to my face*

thank for this awesome crash course, but I know why so many people complain about the course eventhough they get it for free, as she said no one force you to watch it.

Extremely interesting and useful video, thank you so much!!

This has solidified my passion for economics. And has reassured I'm majoring the right thing. Thank you

This whole 13 seconds made me so excited to learn economics gahhhhhhhh cant wait

There are channels and videos like these, and then there are videos like Anaconda by Nicki Minaj with 591 million views. Humanity deserves all it's crises.

Good episode, well formulated, well presented. Just one or two things; could the guy talk a bit slower and clearer, he's sometimes hard to follow. Also, it's not nessecary to "act personable". Yes, this channel has a young audience but you can just be yourself as a presenter you don't have to put on an exaggerated persona to capture our attention. Cool that you're discussing economics though, very relevant :)

My teacher suggest this video and he said i must listen carefully! So while im listening to your video i write every single word so it took me 45mins and i learn the difference between macro and micro i also learn the incentives and cost thank u love u guys keep the good work!

Hey ...i am so grateful for you and this channel and fhe whole team.... Yeah it have made us feel that economics is more about people and choices...before i used to think its only about money . ❤❤❤ Much Love from Nepal .

Hi pals, it's Qermaq with an important message.These episodes are all in the can. If you feel like making directorial suggestions, such as telling people how to talk or act, don't bother. It's pointless clutter and no one wants to see that sort of comment anyway. Thanks, and DFTBA! :D

You are amazing (everyone involved in the making of these videos). Thank you.

Wow. this video comes from a time where people could openly talk about political differences. Incredible.

Jacob and Adriene, I must let you know that you are doing a wonderful job! It is true that I do not care who provides me information, as long as it's correct and I have something to learn (therefore the presence or absence of John Green doesn't interest me) but I have grown fond of you in mere minutes. This course is much much better than my high-school classes. I didn't find it too slow and it's engaging. Thank you!

I'm only 90 seconds in and I'm already screaming "Fucking stop! Please stop!". 2 and a half minutes in and it's only getting worse... fuck me with a side of fries... Know what? Nope. Fuck this. I'm out.

If you are judging the video (+ it's series) with a first impression that covers nothing about the video's title, sure I guess?

You two make Economics fun! Thank you for having great humor!

"walking home in the rain is worse than the teeny tiny chance of dying in a car crash" getting wet

honest feedback from me, less jokes in episodes past #1 and more education. I understand this is an intro and the objective is to pull people into the series, to get them interested, but I just hope future episodes have more substance.

Good video, plan to work my way through some of them. I'm a Geography student who has just started a course in International Economic History with no previous studies in either economics or history!

You might want to check out Geography Now. They make geography quite interesting. Or maybe it's because I simply find geography quite interesting.

I am a big advocate of the Austrian model and i thought compared to other videos on KZread this is actual fairly balanced! Well done.

I love videos like this. I think I learn more when I watch videos like these than what I would in school.

I’m a HS junior and I want to major in econ. I’m giving myself an intro with these videos.

Not an Econ student, I'm looking to maximize Muppets in my life

Love these videos. So informative and NOT boring! You two are also hilarious. Thank you kindly. Also, we need Crash Course here in Canada. How do we make this happen?!

the 'if economics was biology' helped me so much because I understand those terms much better. thank you SO SO SO SO MUCH I LOVE U

why aam i watching this on a weekend and taking notes on this . I dont even have a class for this

This really helped me! You two are awesome, and all the content was clear, informative, and easy for me to understand. A very fun intro to economics. Thank you!!

10:23 I really dig the Milton Waddams toon, nice touch.

I can't believe all this knowledge it's here and free
