ecolonomics

Ecolonomics, a phrase coined by Emmy-award winning actor, Dennis Weaver, is the promotion of sustainable alternatives that are economically profitable. Simply put, ecolonomics means maintaining natural resources in ways that are economically sound. A key component in this effort is sustainability, practices that maintain natural resources at their present level or better. Sustainability is relatively new to many businesses and industries.
Ecolonomics in its simplest and most basic form is Prosperity without Pollution.

Armchair Economist 

Any person who does not have the intelligence or experience to even begin to understand the world's economies but decides their opinions are what will return the world to a time of prosperity anyway. These people often make no effort to even consider the possibility that people who do this for a living are acting in the best interest of the majority.
I heard some armchair economist say, "if the government gave everyone a new Chevy, that would fix the economy".
