I took this course called Markets and Morals during the Fall semester because I have enjoyed taking courses taught by Dr. Blincoe in the past. Before this course, I was not really interested in economics or the philosophy behind the market. However, as always, Dr. Blincoe made this course very interesting and I learned a lot. As a part of this course, we had to read several articles on the various types of economies including capitalism and socialism along with other less popular forms of economics. For my whole life, I have identified as a capitalist but after this course, I began to question my true stance on economics. As a part of the course, before each unit, we had to write a reflection about a topic that was going to be covered in the unit. I have attached the first reflection that I wrote about the definition and purpose of work.
