December meeting report

Our December meeting was held today, Dec 7th. We finished reading chapter 1 and almost finished chapter 2 of  “How an Economy Grows and Why it Crashes” by Peter and Andrew Schiff.  (There is now apparently a Japanese translation, too!)

Our January meeting will be on January 11th. We will finish chapter 2 and read chapter 3. Depending on members’ interest, we may continue to chapter 4 or we may choose something else.

Thank you to all of you who attended today, and thank you to all of you who have attended this year.  I hope you have enjoyed our meetings as much as I have.

I wish you a very happy Christmas and New Year and I look forward to seeing you again in 2017.

Some members made suggestions for future readings, including
