Missed Econ 101?

In light of all this financial upheaval, I’ve been trying to find good sources for learning basic economic concepts. I must admit that I haven’t taken economics since high school, a class that consisted of one semester learning to balance checkbooks… and that was about it. Lately I’ve been reading a basic economics book, and have another on my to-read list, but it struck me that what I really needed was a series of short educational publications on specific economic topics.

Hmmm… government documents, anyone? Here are some helpful documents and websites I’m using.

Please comment if you’ve got further resources–I’m fascinated to see them!
