Here lately I have been trying to achieve a better understanding of national and global economics, mainly just due to some things striking at the home front. I came across this video on a google search and it seems very enlightening/alarming on how economics work, plus items on natural resources. Not wanting to start a political debate here, so lets leave politics out of it. This video brings up some explicit economic cause/effect viewpoints no matter what nation you live in. Just like there are laws of physics, there are also laws of economics. Watch it yourself and and see what you think. You need to have 1.5 hrs of free time to watch it though.
