Microsoft antitrust trial or heard the angry accusations from rival execs at computer conferences knows the basics of the argument against the world's mightiest software company. It goes something like this: By leveraging its Windows monopoly, Microsoft dominates other software areas, such as browsers, word processors, and spreadsheets. Network effects take over, consumers get the shaft, and Bill Gates' net worth zooms up another 10 billion dollars, give or take a few decimal points.

Low Graphics Tuesday, 11 September, 2001, 21:06 GMT 22:06 UK Attacks 'blow to US revival' Economists expect a US military response Attempts to rebuild confidence in the US economy have been set back months, if not longer, by the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, economists have warned. The scale and scope are so big, we are just trying to take it in. But there are bigger things at stake than profits and losses Nick Parsons Commerzbank While they say they cannot even begin to quantify the economic cost, some expect the US to take measures including a military attack to try to rebuild faith in the world's largest economy. The US economic slowdown may also be deepened by the attack on New York City, the country's financial capital, whose bread-and-butter industries were already hurting. The main objective, in the short-term will be to re-open the main US stock markets. The American Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq announced on Tuesday evening that they would remain closed throughout Wednesday.

65. 09.16.98 - $72.7 Billion: Smoking’s Annual Health Care Cost The total cost of caring for people with health problems caused by cigarette smoking is about $72.7 billion per year, according to health economists at the University of California. You expect a figure of this magnitude for the impact of smoking on health care, when you consider that one in five deaths per year is due to cigarette use, said the study's author. Smoking accounted for 11.8 percent of all medical expenditures in the U.S. http://www.berkeley.edu/news/berkeleyan/1998/0916/smoking.html

Chancellor Berdahl Teaches Freshman Seminar This Fall Regular Features News Briefs $72.7 Billion: Smoking's Annual Health Care Cost By Patricia McBroom, Public Affairs posted September 16, 1998 The total cost of caring for people with health problems caused by cigarette smoking counting all sources of medical payments is about $72.7 billion per year, according to health economists at the University of California. The figure is almost six times higher than the cost per year of smoking-related Medicaid payments alone, reported last spring by the same Berkeley and UCSF economists. The new total estimate "translates the adverse health effects (of smoking) into dollar terms, the universal language of decision makers," said t he analysis published today in Public Health Reports . All payments made in 1993 by Medicare, Medicaid, Veterans Administration medical programs, military medical programs, private health insurance companies and out-of-pocket payments were analyzed for that fraction of illness caused by cigarette smoking. By comparison, the March report counted only the cost of smoking-related Medicaid payments $12.9 billion that year. "I am not surprised by these costs," said Leonard Miller, an economist and professor in the School of Social Welfare at Berkeley, who is first author on the report.

Games Economists Play: Non-Computerized Classroom-Games for College Economics by Greg Delemeester and Jurgen Brauer This web site is a resource for instructors of economics who would like to use non-computerized economic experiments (games) in their classrooms. The bulk of the website consists of an extensively annotated and hyperlinked compilation of more than 130 classroom games, most of which can be played within one class period. The purpose of the games is to help teach fundamental micro and macroeconomic concepts. The web site is organized around two tables that classify the games according to subject matter, objectives, class size, game variations, etc. A bibliographic source and/or contact reference is provided for each game. Whenever possible, each game is hyperlinked to (i) similar or related games, (ii) the author's email address, and (iii) a website where the full game description can be accessed (if available). A separate link to a complete games bibliography follows the tables. Table 1 classifies experiments for the Principles of Microeconomics course. The table is divided into three sections covering (i) the basic elements of economic analysis (supply and demand, perfect and imperfect markets, etc.), (ii) applying the basics (international trade and currency markets), and (iii) beyond the basics (market imperfections and government intervention).

But the bad news is that they feel the world economy was pretty much headed in that direction anyway. Over the last few days, the financial community has been attempting to compute the economic costs of the attacks. While most predict that they will take a hefty bite out of economic output over the next few quarters, many also feel a vigorous clean-up effort has the potential to turn things around quickly. That won't, however, do much for the global economy, whose underlying troubles have been all-but forgotten amid the rubble. Indeed, the main economic effect of the attacks will be to multiply the scary number of imponderables already blurring the outlook. The US will slump...

[Back To List of Economists] John Kenneth Galbraith John Kenneth Galbraith: Affluent Society The New Industrial State Galbraithian Philosophy: ... [TOC] John Kenneth Galbraith John Kenneth Galbraith was born in Ontario. His first degree was earned in his home province, and, then, turning to the United States to continue with his studies, he was to eventually receive a Ph.D. in 1934 from the University of California. Galbraith was to teach at both California and Princeton before joining the faculty at Harvard in 1948. During WWII he was in charge of wartime price control. It is interesting to note that "Galbraith's attitude towards price and wage control is not really central to his position." During the Kennedy years he was an ambassador to India. Galbraith's works include: The Great Crash The Affluent Society The Liberal Hour Made to Last (1964), and The New Industrial State [TOC] Affluent Society Galbraith's first big seller was his Affluent Society (1958). It most likely contributed (and likely to a significant degree) to the "war on poverty," being a disastrous government spending policy first brought on by Kennedy and Johnson. This policy (both in the United States and in Canada) not only brought on ruinous levels of debt but split the country in to those who have the jobs and those who do not. "The war on poverty of which so much has been made since then has been able to make excellent careers and many thousands of civil servants of academic people who have been able to do study after study on poverty."
