I’ll note that in my policy PhD program, the points made in the post were well-understood, and even discussed briefly as background in econ classes—despite the fact that we covered a lot of the same econ material you did. That mostly goes to show the difference between policy and “pure” econ, but still.
I really appreciate you citing that.
I should have made it clearer, but for reference, the works I’ve been exposed to:
Hal Varian’s undergrad textbook
Marginal Revolution University
Some amount of listening to Econ Talk, reading Investopedia and Wikipedia articles
MSc degree at LSE
