Markets in Everything: Odd Jobs Edition

From idiots' collective, Today, Read 0 times. Similar articles

The excellent Marginal Revolution blog has a running series entitled "Markets in Everything." In these posts, the writers offer examples of the peculiar little commercial niches created in a vibrant market economy. A few of my favorites include: testicular implants for pets (the splendidly-named "Neuticles"), raves for deaf people, and rent-a-protestor.The "Markets in Everything" series is a tribute to Adam Smith's theory of the division of labor. In Book I, Chapter III of his On the Wealth of... Read more

Stocks in Asia advanced Monday following solid gains in the U.S. as fears eased that the global economy could slip back into recession. Most investors took heart after the U.S. Labor Department on Friday said private employers added 67,000 jobs in August, more than analysts expected. However, the jobless rate rose to 9.6 percent from 9.5 percent in July. The private job gains bolstered optimism that the U.S. will maintain a slow but steady recovery from last year's recession and avoid... Read more

From Windows to Russia, Yesterday, Read 0 times. Similar articles

Originally posted 2009-09-16 07:21:00. As in the whole world, companies in Russia have resorted to job cuts over the past twelve months to stay afloat!

From ahoy hanoi, 3 days ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

English text books is a huge industry. There are countless different books for all age levels, skills and jobs. Some of the books are horrible and others are excellent. Personally, I appreciate the books that have some subtle jokes that only native English speakers would really pick up on. However, the other day I was using a text that had a hilarious joke that seemingly anyone who keeps up with current events could have found funny.If you follow the news, you would know that some Islamic...
