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.

Our pedestrian excursion gives us a ground-level view of the economy, but it's certainly slow and time-consuming. If you're like me, you've probably thought once or twice about jumping into an Omni Motors XL GT 9000 sports coupe to speed us along the way. Or perhaps an Omni Airlines 30-day tourist excursion would make our trip faster and less exhausting. That's one nice thing about modern transportation, it's pretty quick and not too expensive. It also helps us get a whole lot closer to solving the unsolvable problem of scarcity. However, for a really good pedestrian view of transportation and how it helps us along, we'd better remain on foot.

Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time flipping through the yellow pages wanting to buy either a replacement washer for your kitchen faucet or a stretchable, flexible watch band. Be on the lookout for slightly overweight pizza delivery guys.
