In this week’s discussion, we focus on how the market changes when there are changes to the supply or demand of goods and services.
(a) “This year the weather smiled on us, and we made a good crop,” said a wheat farmer in Manitoba. “But just as we made a good crop, the economic situation changed.” This quotation brings to mind the saying, “If you are a farmer, the weather is always bad.” How would use economic theory to explain that this saying might be true and what would you suggest the farmer do to make the best of the situation despite good or bad weather? (one paragraph)

Masks (Now).
The easing Covid-19 pandemic is expected to reduce demand for medical masks this year, joining a group of companies that have forecast a decline in business from Covid-19 prevention.
Masks became a billion-dollar business for the St. Paul, Minn., manufacturer starting in 2020, when the virus’s rapid spread sent consumers and healthcare workers looking to secure facial coverings to try to avoid infection. Now, as the latest U.S. surge caused by the Omicron variant fades, 3M said they are seeing slowing mask sales.

"DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NEEDS AND WANTS"
It is very important to find the difference between
want & need. The money that would be spent on
things that you may want in that moment could
instead be saved or put into things that are more
important. By doing this you may see that you can
save a lot of money, by not buying things that are
not needed and even and that most of your money
is not even being spent
