What is exceptional demand curve?

Asked by Wiki User

It depends on what you are referring to. For something like wood, an exceptional demand would probably mean an want/need for wood like never seen before. If you are referring to somebody demanding something, an exceptional demand would probably mean one that is "crazy, out-of-this-world, drastic'.

How does a country become wealthy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

To begin with the land in which they reside must have a range of resources that they can sell such as timber, metals, gold and diamonds. They must also be adaptable to change. The country also needs to have strong minded people and who are willing to risk their life to gain the country more resources. The people also need to very creative and inventive these ideas can then be sold to another country which makes the host country richer. The government must be organised and must appease its people otherwise a revolt can ensue and destroy the country's economy.

The country can also be quite powerful and take away resources from other countries, their finances needed to be organised well so that their currency doesn't grow weaker.

These are just some of the reasons why a country can become richer than others.

Well said from the guy above, I just wanted to add something. Most the new rich countries in the Arabian Peninsula such as United Arab Emirates and Qatar got rich from one thing. Oil.

From that wealth, they turned into more of a financial hub and a high rise city.

Now they are home to offices of Real Estate firms, and Financial firms as well.

Hope this helped,

What do you consider to be the current social problems of greatest concern?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The most current social problem present the greatest concern to me is the economic. At the moment, the most mayor problem to our community is the economic. The economic had created a mayor community needs in jobs. Many of our communities' individuals are unemployed. Many individuals are not making enough income to pay their household expenses, bringing food to the table and even paying health insurance. The economic is everyone concern at the moment and as part of the community, we should do something about it. More business need to be created so more individuals can be hire, avoid self employment so governor can control taxes payer and control hourly rate pay. Many businesses are employing individual as self employed to avoid taxes and pay individual less hourly rate and less salary.

Who started the 700 billion stimulus package?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If it works...all political types will take credit for it, or the parts that work. The opposite for the parts that fail. The President takes much of the heat in either case...although it is clearly a collaborative effort by all..and most all parts of it are actually approved by vote and enacted as laws by both Houses of Congress.

Name a socialist country?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Communist States

The five countries that are usually referred to as Communist (a type of Socialism) are:

  • China
  • Cuba
  • Vietnam
  • Laos
  • North Korea

There are disputes as to whether or not certain of these states are actually socialist in action or only name. For example:

China is not Socialist.. anymore. It is ruled by a communist party, without a communist ideology. Ever read the book Animal Farm? Perfect example of what is happening in China I imagine. Many are rich, most are poor. Living standards are poor and there is no social welfare anywhere. People, this is not Socialism at all.

Socialist States

Cuba is still socialist despite its decline similar to North Koreas after the collapse of the USSR. When people think of these countries they think of Communism but that's not further from the truth, communism and socialism are the exact opposites. So, the answer is if you want to know countries that call themselves Socialist or Communist then here you go.

There were also many historical countries in Africa or Asia that were socialist at different periods, such as Algeria, Angola, Afghanistan, Yemen, Cambodia, etc.

Socialism in Other Countries

In the modern world many countries have Socialist tendencies when it comes to the welfare of its citizens. Socialism defends the rights of the workers and the underprivileged against larger corporations and more conservative ideologues. In this way, it gives a voice and a power to those who otherwise would have no mechanism to fight for their rights. Socialists have largely been responsible for the establishment of labor standards, the creation and designation of national treasures, improving healthcare and access to medicine, and shifting the tax burden from a regressive tax on individuals to a progressive tax that targets corporations.

Countries that have exhibited forms of Socialism include (among others):

  • Norway
  • Sweden
  • Denmark
  • Iceland
  • Switzerland
  • France
  • Ireland
  • Canada
  • Japan
  • Venezuela
  • Germany (a little)
  • United Kingdom
  • United States of America (in a few respects)

Socialism basically means "bringing all the big corporations, controlling around 80% of the economy, into democratic public ownership, under democratic working-class control."

Which is the case for no countries in current society.

So the answer to your question is NONE.

(Some would argue that the U.S. is well on its way to being/already is socialist.)

What is micro economic in principle of economic?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Microeconomics is the study of a section of the economy rather than the economy as a whole (which is macroeconomics).

Microeconomics is more concerned with the allocation of scarce resources and the elasticity (sensitivity) of consumers and producers at the level of households and firms.

In other, more simple words, it is the laws of supply and demand.

The study of individual firms and individual households in a market.

Scope and importance of managerial economics?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Business managers need to know about macroeconomics because firms operate in and are influenced by the behavior of the overall economy. Factors such as interest rates, employment, inflation, money supply, etc., affect the business environment and financial conditions in general, so firms must address macroeconomic issues in their planning and management strategy. Macroeconomic forecasts and strategies are more important for large firms than for small businesses.

Will you get 2010 stimulus check?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There will (or maybe is one). It is a term for any economic package the Feds are passing to fund economic recovery....it does not have anything to do, or mention, any payments to individuals though. In Australia the Federal Labour Government only plans to assist people who already receive a livable wage, or students receiving Austudy/Abstudy, & not the unemployed who really are on the lowest income. And I always thought Labour stood up for the real battlers of this great nation. What a joke!!.... Even people earning up to $100,000 per year are entitled to a $900 bonus, but not people receiving less than $20,000 per year. Go Figure!!! Kevin Rudd does nothing to financially assist people on Centrelink's Newstart Allowance, but you can bet he will raise the payments as soon as workers start losing ther jobs due to the economic downturn, cause people will soon realise how little the unemployed receive. Pensioners received a $1450 bonus in December 2008 & they're already talking about giving them a $35 per week pay rise. What about the long term unemployed? Surely they deserve a break for a change instead off handouts to those poor unfortunate people who have jobs & have been living on $95,000 a year. Get it right Labour, look after the people who really do need it instead of playing politics. I, for one, will never vote Labour again. I hear the Commies are re-entering a party after 30 odd years of absence from Australian politics. Bring on the Reds....Can't get any worse, can it?
