Just got the chance to watch the video – very very economist of them.

People do things freely in this world – I’m a bit nervous about relying on people providing labour without a rationing device like a price to sort matters out. This universe must be highly inefficient.

That or they’ve somehow solved scarcity.

They’re not good or bad – they’re the voice of reason, insisting that transactions are made for money (and a commodity-backed money at that), in a universe that is otherwise, from what I can tell, some Californian hippie’s utopian dream where people will do everything freely “for the benefit of mankind”, or some silliness like that.

But if you’re talking about one-handed Jedis – yes, they do have a tendency to join the dark side.

That is a little bit harsh on economists isn’t it – I thought those guys tended to be bad guys. From what I can tell economists are paragons of virtue 😉

Actually, if you combine “the Force” with “economics” you get something more like the Ferengi from Star Trek:
