It turns out that Economics is Politics after all.

Of course! And the entire purpose of NCE is and always has been to disguise that fact. Looks like I will have to buy Hudson's latest edition of Trade & International Debt for the history of economics it now contains. This sort of information is much more useful to my little brain than trying to get my head around a bunch of bull shit economic mathematical models.

If I am going to do that I might as well go ahead and try to learn at least ordinary differential equations. Then I would better be able to follow Steve Keen's work. Any recommendations for Differential Equations for Dummies? Or is there such a book and is it useful?

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."

I suggest Introduction to Dynamics by Percival and Richards, Cambridge University Press.

En un viejo país ineficiente, algo así como España entre dos guerras civiles, poseer una casa y poca hacienda y memoria ninguna. -- Gil de Biedma
