thanks

I'm so glad you want to learn about economics because there are so many people today that are completely ignorant on such an important topic. Economics in one lesson is a great place to start and it looks like you're on the right track so far.

The Communist Manifesto is fucking braindead retarded but it would actually be a good idea for you to read it so you can analyze his arguments for yourself and see how fucking insane Marx was and how illogical his theories are. You'll learn about the Labor Theory of Value (which is fucking dumb as shit) but that's the entire basis of his economic theory, and that's why hardcore leftists hate capitalism so much. It's important to understand the other side's arguments. Also Das Kapital.

I have a huge collection of awesome economics books that I'm currently working through so give me a second and I'll return with a list of some of the best ones I have.

Agree.

IMO:

Sowell is good. I'd also pick up his book Economic Facts and Fallacies

Friedman is always a good read Capitalism and Freedom

Hayek is interesting if you're into cryptocurrencies as Austrian Economics is said to be the foundational root of cryptoeconomics and cryptocurrencies.

Free to Choose - Friedman
Individualism and Economic Order - Hayek
Atlas Shrugged - Ayn Rand

Bureaucracy
Planned Chaos - Mises (pretty much anything by Mises, he fucking wrecks socialism/communism)

"Selected Works of Frederic Bastiat" (collection of his essays)
-broken window parable
-"something else" parable
-That which is seen and not seen

Those are the big ones I can think of off the top of my head.
Check out FEE.org, mises.org, econlib.org

lots of these can be found online for free in PDF form, but I picked up some hardcopies for really cheap at my local used book store

oh "The Candlemaker's Petition" is another must read from Bastiat, another short essay but very powerful. The broken window parable destroys Keynesian economics and "something else" destroys the labor theory of value AND protectionism all in one go. The man was a go damn genius.

Friedman > Hayek > Mises > Rothbard

Praxeology is the same fundamental mindset as Marxist economics. It's autistic screeching that "my fundamental assumptions about human nature will dictate economic reality."

The field of economics is an inherently empirical field. Your pseudoscientific bullshit is not welcome. That being said, the free market is the superior economic system.

What is the bestest most fastest way to understand the commodity markets such as Sugar, Coffee, Oil, Natural Gas, Silver, Copper and others? How do hedge funds work here? How do the producers, or large consumers of Silver work here? I want every factor that can affect it because these are not memes like biotechs
