Economix: How and Why Our Economy Works (and Doesn't Work), in Words and Pictures
Excellent overview of economics, throughout the US history and all the other countries we deal with. All this from a leftist's point of view, and illustrated throughout with a cute and funny comic style.I read this to get a better picture on how my money circulates, who has it (not always me), and where it goes. If you don't want to wade through several weighty tomes on the subject give this one a look see.
Recommended!
Spoiler alert: money is good, but some people have more of it than others.
