I hope this is in the right place. 
The debate board has a mixture of posters: many of who have studied economics, or work in roles in finance or similar, and a lot of enthusiastic amateurs, and some passing interest. For those of us who have never studied economics sometimes the terms can be confusing, especially when commonly misused.
Would it be possible for us to have a new sticky where some of those with greater theoretical knowledge define and explain some of the terms and ideas. As well as helping the users of that board I submit it would be a worthwhile and informative thing to have for all of us making financial decisions.
