    Economics is the study of how society allocates scarce resources and goods. Resources are the inputs that society uses to produce output, called goods. Resources include inputs such as labor, capital, and land. Goods include products such as food, clothing, and housing as well as services such as those provided by barbers, doctors, and police officers. These resources and goods maybe be considered scarce because of society's tendency to demand more resources and goods than are available. Two of the major approaches in economics are called 1) classical and 2) Keynesian. Classical economists believe that markets function very well, will quickly react to any changes in equilibrium without much government policy. On the other hand, Keynesian economists believe that markets react very slowly to changes in equilibrium (especial to changes in prices) and that active government intervention is sometimes the best method to get the economy back into equilibrium.…
