Studying Economics and Eating --
Are They Complements?
Cynthia suggests they are. She posted this to her blog and to her course message board:
In my case, any time I read about pizza and beer, like Cynthia, I'm at the fridge and the telephone. The power of suggestion easily seduces me.
When reviewing Chapter 2, the model used extensively throughout deals with a Pizza/Robot Economy. Did anyone else actually order pizza when reviewing this chapter? I did!If studying economics and eating are complements, is it a logical implication that economists are fat? Or is the eating that takes place while studying economics a very good substitute for eating when not studying economics (do we time-shift our eating)? Or are there other important complementarities [some students would say that studying economics also induces nausea, countering the effects of eating].
