Economics research paper topics?

Do the DeBeerz diamond monopoly. We have had a couple lectures on it in micro, it would be a breeze for a paper topic and earn you a good grade. If you want I can give you the power point presentation one of my professors used as a guide.
 
any interest in previewing a steady state economy and contrasting it to the growth model we've been using for the past 200 years?

 
There is a WSJ article on rent control that would be a great topic for an econ paper. Interesting topic, and really easy to write about.
 
Do it on how Obama's stimulus package is a horrible idea and is gonna drive the country even deeper into "recession". do that! or, how bailouts in general are idiotic ideas, especially for companies like the Big 3 or citi, which refuse to change their business models and offer zero transparency.
 
i posted a 15 page research paper on here a while ago regarding the privatization of social security and milton friedman. i can't seem to find it in my threads, however. use taht searchbar and see what you can find. in a class where it was nearly impossible to get anything above a B on anything, I got a 98 percent on it. check it out, get some ideas.
 
yea use the search bar not being a bitch saying it but for real there are a few papers about economics on here
 
yeah, I want to write this myself, so I just need topics. and it's due by the end of this period but I'm sure I can work something out if I still have no idea.

I was thinking of doing something on stimulus packages, actually. I think that could be good.
 
it's not due for a bit, we had a week to come up with topics. I'm doing Obama's economic stimulus plan. Lots of info, very topical, and interesting to me. perfecto!
 
when you said it's due by the end of the period i figured somewhere in the realm of 40-75 minutes.
 
The stimulus package isn't the best idea, but right now it's the only one. Aggregate Demand= Investment+Consumption+Government Spending+Net Exports. Due to the credit crisis, Investment has fallen sharply. Additionally, thanks to the subprime mortgage crisis, money for consumption that used to come from home equity is now nonexistent, and consumer confidence being at an all time low means that people will save more, money which used to then get lent out by banks for investment but is now being held tightly by banks desperate to improve their liquidity. Therefore, the only real avenue left to the government is to bolster Aggregate Demand through spending. The Great Depression would have been a lot less severe had Herbert Hoover implemented aggressive government spending programs immediately. Just my $0.02.
