This is a current video that lasts seven minutes and is an interview with an economics expert. The video touches on inflation and deals with terms that older students should be able to understand. The yellow flags are important to the consumers are most important. First is how much income they're taking home. The real hourly wage compared with inflation is an important indicator since it changes before many other indicators. When the prices of gasoline and food products raised it causes a concern since most household families spend all the money they get and when gasoline price raise
they have to start making cuts. Another risk is the increase of tax. Three thing that could help in the future would be increase of wages, increase of employment, or increase in hours of work. The line of $70,000 of income and below are not able to save as before. This video is best used to show how the study of economic impact of the student's daily lives. This video is, at best, a guess of what might happen and should be explained as such to students.
- Morningstar's Bob Johnson says flat nominal wages, increasing signs of inflation, and strapped state and local governments could hinder consumer spending.

The eight gold stars: seven in the constellation Ursa Major, or the Big Dipper. The eighth star represents the North Star, because Alaska is the northern most state. The anthem is “Alaska’s Flag” composed by Elinor Dusenbury and Carol Beery Davis. With this video you can see the flag and hear the anthem. Good for all students.

Communist regimes around the Globe are responsible for a greater number of deaths than any other political ideal or movement, including Nazism (death toll totals more than 94 million people). In the USSR alone communists killed more than 20 million people. Despite that Western world refuse to accept the fact that their Allie, the Soviet Union in fact committed war crimes and genocide even larger in scale than that of Nazi regime. Communism - the extraordinary social experiment promising equality and freedom swept from Russia around the world. In the early days hopes were high, but in the end the story of Communism is one of grim realities. Listen as people from behind the Iron Curtain tell how their lives were affected by this new world order, from the storming of the Winter Palace in Tzarist Russia in 1917 to the swift implosion of communist regimes around the world in the 1980s.

Video accompanied by text. "South Carolina stood firm against the Tariff of 1828 with such acts of defiance as lowering the flags to half-mast. These displays made President Jackson realize that intervention was necessary. John C. Calhoun still carried some influence with the president, who at Calhoun’s urging encouraged Congress to enact the Tariff of 1832. This new tariff reduced the rate of the Tariff of 1828. However, producers in the south remained distraught over the high tariffs and resisted this compromise, as well..."
