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.
Economics
How is property given? By restraining liberty; that is, by taking it away so far as necessary for the purpose. How is your house made yours? By debarring every one else from the liberty of entering it without your leave.
Jeremy Bentham, "A Critical Examination of the Declaration of Rights; Article II" in The Works of Jeremy Bentham, Vol. II (1839), p. 503.
