The Difference between Normative and Positive Statements
This video explores the difference between normative and positive statements. More information on this topic can be found at: www.freeeconhelp.com/2018/07/the-difference-between-normative-and-positive-statements.html
The video looks at examples of normative states and examples of positive statements and discusses the main things to look for when trying to tell the difference between the two. The trick to figuring out whether a statement is normative is to ask yourself if it is an opinion or a statement of something that can be tested or not. Generally positive statements have to be true or false and are testable in a reasonably straight forward way.

“Spending more than producing” - well said, I’ve always struggled how to explain this … this helps
Can you choose to bring pizza on the vertical axis and broccoli on the horizontal axis
Still helpful 12 years later
Thank you.

This is very helpful. However, where are you getting the 15 from ?
Thank you so much for this wonderful video! It really helped me

Why use r for the interest rate in the IS equation but i in the LM equation?
nvm... it's nominal vs real interest rate
Hahaha you were very confident when u said "close enough I'm not an artist" keep up the good work I'm here to watch it😍
Best explanation I’ve ever had honestly…..bless u
Thanks for just saving my life 😂❤
Thank you so much sir

Thank you so much for this video,I have been struggling to understand this concept. I wanted to ask if when marginal cost=marginal benefit,does that mean allocative and productive effective is achieved?
beautiful video, i can cry
so he drew a line through all the dots.😅most people dont even know why that is wrong😂
that was a great explanation with a neat example, thanks!
Who's here in 2024😅🎉
I am a bit confused with the formula used here. How can this be used for scenarios like salaries of A and B, expenses and other benefits? a formula: OC=FO-CO. FO: Return of the FORGONE OPTION. CO: Return of the Chosen Option.
Thankyou!! Just the answer I was looking for
This was so helpful-thank you!!
THANK YOU! Over an hour spent trying to answer one problem - this explanation and I had the correct answer first try!

This is different to what we were taught? for LM curve our lecturer went on about speculative demand, people guessing what's going to happen to rates of return on bonds and lending
better than my professor who has a PHD in economics😂
Tq for explaining... Even though this video is 12 years ago. Its still better than my teacher from this generation
Man you just make me wanna say thank you because that is so helpful man. Keep it up
