Just taking this opportunity to promote two of my Wikieducator pages
dealing most directly with Economics:

wikieducator.org/Supermarket_Math
wikieducator.org/GST

The GST page is especially sparse as I'm not wishing to clutter
Wikieducator with a lot of what's already out there (sometimes it's
enough to provide a buncha pointers).

On the subject of Economics, I find doomy gloomy stuff to be easier to
churn out than any truly positive futurism, so anyone contributing at
all realistically in the latter vein gets my instant respect and
kudos, even if I don't necessarily share the semi-utopian vision in
question (or maybe I do, so much the better for the two of us).
Arthur C. Clarke was a great visionary, as was Ada in her day.

Along those lines, I would categorize myself as NOT a Neo-Malthusian,
and for more context will supply this link to the Math Forum (a recent
reply to Dr. Hake, whom I often agree with and get value from
reading):

Enjoy your trip to Indiana,
