LLS 1333 - Economics: It is not about Money, It is about Everything

Credits: 3 hrs.
Did you realize we can increase life expectancy by increasing inheritance taxes? Did you know when you make cars safer for drivers, you increase deaths of pedestrians? Did you know you can save more lives by executing white collar criminals than mass murderers? Perhaps more importantly, did you realize more sex is safer sex and if you want to stay married, you better hope for a son, not a daughter? We will explore all of these issues and by the end of the course, you will have the tools to solve problems that you see in the everyday world.
