As an introvert, I usually go crazy when I'm on trips because I never have time alone. It's even harder because I often travel with school groups so I need to follow "the buddy system." How can I survive my next trip?!?

Yes, open borders can induce freer labor markets, but can't managed migration help out as well? Countries which fail to maintain a stable economy cannot support global economic reform, so shouldn't countries manage the influx and outflow of their population to some extent?

When you are in love with someone, and when you two are together, and conversations do not come naturally, does that mean you are not really in love? When I'm around this guy it takes awhile for us to start talking naturally. But there are times in which conversation is hard.

How is income and wealth are distributed in the United States?? Well there are some statistics but I don't know if they answer my question. Here are the statistics I am working with:

-In 2000, the top 1% had 20% of all the income in the U.S., the next 19% had 38.7%, and the bottom 80% 41.4% of the income.

-In 1998, the bottom 99% held 61.9% of wealth in the U.S. while top 1% held 38.1%

Can you please help me I'm really confused. Does this mean that the wealth and income is more heavily distributed among the rich than the medium and lower classes or does it mean that the distribution is even among all classes? Please help I will greatly appreciate it!! Thank you!!

It seems to me that a man with a photographic memory would remember when he arrived at a victim's home! Even if he didn't get it quite right a time difference of 4 hours is hard to swallow. Not to mention that he was about to recant his confession when he was killed!

I'm a sci guy; I don't know a whole lot about economics. When I logged on to Yahoo today, there was a headliner that explained that the DOW dropped 500 points today. How bad is that? How normal is that?

I have one dream that I don't quite understand. In it I am able to fly or hover/glide. Sometimes I start out on the top of a hill and jump off head first with my arms extended straight out to my sides. I glide through the air to the bottom, where I rotate and land on my feet. The location of the jump and the height involved changes, but it is always the same. People, I don't know who they are, watch me do it and are amazed. I have never crash landed and I cannot remember anything I may dream about either before or after gliding.

Any dream interpreters out there?

Plot these data points, and identify the four phases of the business cycle. Give a theory that may explain the cause of the observed business cycle. What are some of the consequences of a prolonged decline in real GDP? Is the decline in real GDP from $1,000 billion to $500 billion a recession?

I have this guy I really like. When we're together and see eachother I get butterflies in my stomach. When we are in the car together and driving, I kind of have to force myself to start a conversation, it doesn't really come naturally between us. He's not the type to initiate conversations. When I'm around him my mind goes numb, and I sometimes say stupid things. What do you think this all means?

right now sex costs $1,200 for one night with a woman in the usa. that is 30 to 40 times the cost of sex in poorer countries. what should be done to lower these high prices in the crazy usa? sex tourism to poorer countries, importation of cheaper foreign women, or changing laws in the usa that make the sex market more competitive?

There is a women at work who I hardly know, and for some reason she keeps the little sticky notes I have left for her. The notes are purely work related. For example "I came to see you earlier but you were out". I came across them all on her desk today. Why would she do this? It seems a bit strange.
I have asked her and she doesn't answer the question.

I'm an Afghanistan and Iraq vet. I saw some combat, mostly indirect fire, but didn't experience anything that I would consider traumatic. I got out of the military and 6 months after returning from Iraq, I was depressed, felt totally worthless and guilty about things that happened over there. My wife made me go to the Vet Center for counseling, but I couldn't stop feeling like I was just wasting their time and that I didn't deserve to be in counseling, etc. My friend thinks I should file a claim with the VA for PTSD disability, but my counselor at the Vet Center never said I have it for sure or not. I don't think I do, but something isn't right. What should I do?
