Not a blog but a "q-and-a" (pronounced "quanda"), this page is about the basics of economics. Its premise: there are no stupid q's. And if some a's seem dim, take heart: I can brighten them up in response to objections, corrections, refinements. Comments on posts feature yours, and my responses. Enough of you now frequent and query the quanda that I post most every day. Haven't seen your q yet? Send it again. All a's should be taken with a shaker of sodium chloride, if not a Lot's-wife's-worth. And speaking of salt, the mustache and "hair" in the photo has a lot less of that condiment, and rather more pepper, than can be seen on TV. Think of it as time travel.

Retired Auto Workers Ask Union Chief Ron Gettelfinger Their Questions

In shooting a story on the GM bankruptcy that will air tonight, we asked a group of United Auto Worker retirees to put their questions directly to UAW President Ron Gettelfinger. Here are their questions and his responses, which we didn't have time to include in tonight's piece.

And don't miss a longer interview with Gettelfinger and Paul Solman that aired late last week.
