Economics, social science concerned with the production, distribution, exchange, and consumption
of goods and services. Economists focus on the way in which individuals, groups, business enterprises,
and governments seek to achieve efficiently any economic objective they select. Other fields of study
also contribute to this knowledge: Psychology and ethics try to explain how objectives are formed;
history records changes in human objectives; sociology interprets human behavior in social contexts.

Eeyore ponders a new career.
"Actually," Eeyore continued, "I'm thinking about a new career myself - personal growth and whatnot, and et ceteras, you know. I'm considering becoming an economist.
