Economics

Economics () is the social science that studies the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services.

Trade

Trade involves the transfer of goods or services from one person or entity to another, often in exchange for money. A system or network that allows trade is called a market.

Trade

Where wealth and freedom reign contentment fails,
And honour sinks where commerce long prevails.

Oliver Goldsmith, The Traveller, Line 91.

Trade

Free trade may have wide support among economists, but its support among the public at large is considerably less.

Thomas Sowell, Basic Economics, 4th ed. (2010), Ch. 22. Overview.

Trade

A trader is trusted upon his character and visible commerce: that credit enables him to acquire wealth. If by secret liens a few might swallow up all, it would greatly damp that credit.

Lord Mansfield, Worseley v. Demattos (1758), 1 Burr. Part IV., p. 483.
