This week I read two articles that I would like to share. One from the Atlantic and the other, the New Yorker Magazine, both related to he same larger issues.

I am Elaine Schwartz, an economics writer, teacher, and the founder of econlife®. In so many places and ways, I have tried to make economics interesting and accessible so we could be personally, professionally, and politically knowledgeable.
