Living in Style: Dorm Room Decor

Economic Lessons

I suppose that resolves it? When the Federal Reserve Board (Alan Greenspan's shop) increases interest rates, the unemployment rate of those with less than a high-school diploma does rise relative to the unemployment rate of those with a bachelor's degree or more. That's what the data say. But what is the explanation? Why should anyone care?
