We think the AmosWEB WEB*pedia is without question the best economics encyclopedia available on the web. If you find a better one, let us know. We won't stay second best for long.

One potential problem with any far and wide ambling tour of the economy is ambling too far or too wide. Such is the case as we find ourselves in the quaint and courteous Republic of Northwest Queoldiola. While we're here, let's take the opportunity to explore the quaint and courteous economy of the Northwest Queoldiola. Our impromptu economic expedition is faced with an immediate roadblock. I have a pocket filled with good old U. S. dollar bills, but the quaint and courteous people of Northwest Queoldiola don't trade their wares for good old U. S. dollar bills. They prefer the quaint and courteous Northwest Queoldiolan currency, the queold. All we need to do is trade my good old U. S. dollar bills for quaint and courteous queolds.

Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time at the confiscated property police auction looking to buy either a computer that can play video games and burn DVDs or a black duffle bag with velcro closures. Be on the lookout for slightly overweight pizza delivery guys.
