We study economics to answer the question..."What is Economics?". It helps us understand its study of how individuals and governments allocate scarce resources in an attempt to satisfy unlimited wants. Economics is also the study of people producing and exchanging to get the goods and services they want. Some assumptions in the study of economics are that peoples' wants are unlimited, the resources to satisfy these wants are limited or scarce, and people (and governments) are willing to exchange (trade) in an effort to satisfy their wants.
We should study economics because it is more important today than it was 20, 30, or 50 years ago.
