I like books. I always have a book which I read first thing in the morning in bed with a cup of tea and last thing at night until I fall asleep. I also read the Economist on the college bus so perhaps I am nerdy too! @NerdyNudist

@Blodyn oooo a girl that reads about economics 😍

I thought I replied to this already! But why shouldn’t I read about Economics. The Economist is about Politics too. And there is another girl in college who reads the Economist and we talk a lot. We get the Economist for £1 through UCAS. It’s usually £5.99! @NerdyNudist

@Blodyn You should!! It's a woefully neglected science :) I enjoy Economists like Milton Friedman, Hayek, Rothbard, and Sowell

I am sorry. I never heard of those people. I feel I am displaying my ignorance!@NerdyNudist

When I saw 24 minutes I thought, “Oh no!” But actually it was interesting. What I got from it is that politicians don’t always really think about the economics of their proposals. Because that could lose votes! @NerdyNudist

@Blodyn Yes, and that government programs are based on what politicians think the people want or should want, and not what they actually want or need.

Thank you. That made so much sense. The end made me think of the women who work in textiles. Our smaller fingers are such an assett. Without government intervention we would be hired every time. @NerdyNudist
