Economic Terrorism

1. Blocking or denying the right of an entity to buy, sell or trade in order to force them into bankruptcy, extreme hardship, or extreme poverty usually with the intent of extorting them into giving up something valuable that the aggressor wants. For example: If a country wants another to give up oil, or diamonds, they can commit economic terrorism by starving the other until they surrender or die. 2. Placing restrictions on a citizen in order to deny them the right to buy, sell or trade in order to force them to conform, submit, or comply to the oppressor's rulers or mores.

Economic Transplant

Economic Transplant: are individuals who move out of their hometowns and transplant themselves into the larger economies of bigger cities. This explains why some demographics of the U.S. population are able to become successful in obtaining better jobs in bigger cities or any city or town other than their hometown. These economic transplants usually do better than the local population in obtaining higher salaries.
Johnny moved from his hometown (Rochester, NY) to Charlotte, North Carolina recently and found high-paying job in the local economy. Yeah, Johnny is a economic transplant who moved out of the urban decay of northern inner-cities and expensive coastal cities to find greater economic opportunities than the local Johnnies of Charlotte, North Carolina.

economizing

urban economizing (term introduced by economist M. Filyak) is growing plants, small animals and mushrooms as a substitute for rural activity in urban environment with the aim of additional profit, usually supplementary in nature.
Приклади urban economizing є чисельними - вирощування квітів та декоративних вазонів у квартирах, розсади на продаж та для розмноження на присадибних ділянках - у квартирах, грибів у підвалах, виробництво добрив з відходів (останнє особливо популярне у Японії), розмноження шиншил, котів, собак та хом’яків у квартирах, вирощування червів-опаришів для риболовлі. Ці види діяльності не потребують дачі або іншої заміської землі, тому у такому рослинництві використовуються пакети з землею, гідропоніка. До таких типів господарювання (що часто стає розвитком підприємництва) з певними умовами відноситься і «хенд-мейд», а також вишивка та в’язання, виготовлення в домашніх умовах тортів та іншої випічки «під замовлення» у магазини та на свята.

Hot Waitress Economic Index

Hot Waitress Economic Index (HWEI) is an unofficial and controversial economic indicator suggesting that when the economy tanks, suddenly all the servers at restaurants become ridiculously attractive because hot people who normally work better-paying jobs are forced to wait tables. The hotter your server, the more fucked the economy probably is.

The HWEI is one of the many weird indicators that people have used to make sense of the economy. Advertisements by the United States Marine Corps, sales of men's underwear, and even lipstick sales are just a few of them.

You can expect to see tougher marine recruitment ads on TV in a difficult economy because they meet recruitment goals quickly in down economies. They don't have to worry about scaring people away. Men's underwear sales will dip (that pair might last a little longer) and lipstick sales will go up because it's a relatively inexpensive personal luxury.
Kevin: Damn, my waitress last night was hot, why is she working at The Cheesecake Factory?? According to the Hot Waitress Economic Index, we're definitely heading for a recession.

History of Economic Thought

A lesson for undergraduate economics classes. Economists those died hundreds of years ago can still fuck your mind because of this lesson. Some of them claim that value can only be determined by demand and others begin to blend them by being foolish, because, according to them value can only be determined by supply or something fucking else.

I used to think that Karl Marx is a merit figure in history because he tried to solve the poverty problem but now i think he's fucking crazy. You will see his name in everywhere if you are am economics student. In Sociology, in macroeconomics, in microeconomics, in comparative world economy, in politics...
