The purpose of this act is to authorize the development of a comprehensive economic education program for children in kindergarten and grades one through twelve in the public school districts of this state which choose to participate. It is the legislative intent that this program may teach a positive understanding of the American economy, how it functions and how the individual can function effectively within our economy as a consumer, worker and voter. While dealing with economic problems and issues, the program may teach the positive values of profit and
competition in a basically free-enterprise economy which underscores the worth and dignity of the individual. Amended by Laws 1982, c. 326, § 11.
