1. People choose.
2. People's choices involve costs.
3. People respond to inventives in predictable ways.
4. People create economic systems that influence individual choices and incentives.
5. People gain when they trade voluntarily.

Can someone help me figure out what I can draw for a Traditional Economic System and a Command Economic System? They are the only ones I need to do before I turn the project in tomorrow.

@Jessica: how about saying what happens to brands or prices of products when citizens live under a Command Economic System? You could also draw a Cuban Flag. ;)
