![]() On a more negative side, we can see that when a government entity attempts to save an industry by pumping money in, it may not actually be doing good, since perhaps more jobs would be lost elsewhere in the economy. The fallacy of composition is wrong because it ignores interactions within an ecosystem. However, at the same time, there was a record low amount of unemployment, and the overall number of jobs rose around the nation. For example, in the 1990s, there was a reported loss of jobs in specific American firms and industries. The fallacy of composition is mistakenly assuming that what applies to something small always automatically applies to the whole. Thus, when we look at the national economy, we need to understand the fallacy of composition. This is because we are dealing with a lot of different cogs in the economic machine, which are each affected by others. However, because we are looking at a greater whole, these applications may take more time before the results reveal reality. When we look at the national economy, many of the same principles of economics, such as supply and demand, can be applied. Otherwise, let’s get into chapter 15!

To break up the otherwise uneventful account of the cross-country trek, Rosenfelt includes detailed profiles of his dogs, many of which are unintentionally morbid. The author also misses the opportunity to expand on his former career as a movie marketing executive he disparagingly mentions his Hollywood days, but the stories are some of the most compelling in the book, including his work on the Short Circuit sequel and helping Charlton Heston adopt a chow mix. The main character in most of his mystery books is Andy Carpenter. ![]() However, Rosenfelt does not approach planning the journey with a positive frame of mind and complains throughout the trip.
