Economics Homework Help

For this discussion post, please find a recent example of economics in the news, briefly describe the article, properly define economics terms used, and list at least one question you have that was either left unanswered or that the article inspired in you. So, what specifically do I mean by all that?

1. Find a news article (or video) and attach to your post (or provide the link). This must be a news article appearing anytime after April 2, 2021.
2. Briefly summarize the article in your own words. (This should be roughly one paragraph in length; a paragraph is generally 3 – 5 sentences).
3. Please make a statement as to the veracity of your source. For example, is your source a state-owned propaganda media site? You can tell by researching whether your source is biased in a particular direction. This only needs to be one or two sentences describing how you have verified your source.
4. How is economics used or mentioned in this article? For example, is it an article specifically about an economic topic (eg unemployment), or is it about something different but featuring economic concepts? In your answer, be sure to also define any economics terms you use and define them in simple terms that anyone can understand (this means you will say something like “scarcity means the concept that there is not enough to satisfy everyone’s wants and needs” etc).
5. What question(s) were left unanswered in this article? Alternatively, what question(s) did this article spark in you?

In searching for your article, please use any legitimate media source (avoid any propaganda agencies; see question 3 above).
