Answer to Question 1

The long-run Phillips curve is illustrated in the above figure. It is vertical at the natural unemployment rate. The fact that the long-run Phillips curve is vertical means that in the long run there is no tradeoff between inflation and unemployment. In other words, in the long run higher inflation does not decrease unemployment nor does low inflation increase unemployment.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
