The articles that I was able to find were difficult and intense readings. My original peer reviewed journal, was listed as a PRJ on Onesearch when i found it, and later was no longer listed as one, so i had to find another one. both of them were enormously long articles filled with technical jargon and this made them quite a pain to extrapolate information from. Honestly a big surprise that came as a result of the type of texts I chose, was being exposed to the level and extent of examination of my topic by the economic community. I have learned a lot about how our economy works and how some foreign economies work, and this will probably come in handy with some of my other classes, maybe even things that have to do with engineering demand.
