BASIC INGREDIENTS OF THE U. S. ECONOMY

Every economic system tries to anticipate and then meet human needs through the production and distribution of goods and services. The economic system is the mechanism that brings together natural resources, the labor supply, technology and the necessary entrepreneurial and managerial talents. Although the type of economic system used by a nation is the result of political decision, is also in even larger part the result of historical experience that, over time, becomes a national culture.

The first ingredient of an economic system is the natural resources from which goods are produced. The United States is a land rich in mineral resources and fertile farm soil, together with a moderate climate, second, the amount of available labor helps to determine the health of an economy. Generally, the United States has been fortunate in having enough people to provide the labor necessary for a constantly expanding economy. Until shortly after world War I, most of these workers were either immigrants (or their immediate descendants) who came to America

fromEurope, or African Americans whose forebears were brought to the Americas as slaves, when too many laborers arrived to be absorbed on the East Coast, they could usually move on to farm land in the interior and be productively absorbed in that part of the economy.

Another factor in any economic system is the quality of available labor-how hard people is willing to work and how skilled they are. In the United States, the frontier demanded hard work, and the Protestant work ethic supported that demand. The strong emphasis is placed on education, including technical and vocational education, also contributed to America's economic success. Likewise the willingness to experiment, to change and to invest in technology was significant in a land that had prided itself on being a new experiment in freedom. But the existence of abundantnatural resources and a skillfull and willing labor force accounts for only part of the structure of an economic system. The resources must be directed as efficiently as possible into the areas where they will be most productive, in the American economy, managers of enterprises responding to signals from markets perform this function.

Первым ингредиентом экономической системы являются природные ресурсы, из которых производятся товары. Соединенные Штаты - это земля, богатая полезными ископаемыми и плодородной сельскохозяйственной почвой, в сочетании с умеренным климатом, во-вторых, количество доступной рабочей силы помогает определить здоровье экономики. В целом Соединенным Штатам посчастливилось иметь достаточно людей, чтобы обеспечить рабочую силу, необходимую для постоянно растущей экономики.
