On the topic of anecdotes, anything by Malcolm Gladwell.
Naked Economics is a good layperson's primer to Econ itself, while Freakonomics is more applied/fringe.
I don't know how to say this nicely, but have you taken Econ 101? none of what you said is consistent with modern economic theory.
Here are some resources i like to recommend in cases such as this. this this. Good luck HF
You could try the Oxford Companion to Philosophy.
Frederick Copleston wrote a fantastic history of philosophy in 11 volumes.
Anthony Kenny has done a somewhat more concise history.
Brian Magee has done it in one volume
Will Durant is also a good bet and a segue into history.
Read a People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn and/or Lies my History Teacher told Me.
Guns, Germs, and Steel is also good.
Read some theology. Not many people do. Try Rowan Williams. I'd recommend his Resurrection, but he's also written a book on Dostoevsky.
Read Dostoevsky. Crime and Punishment. Notes from the Underground. Brothers Karamazov. Take your pick.
Might check out Edward Said's Orientalism. Maybe some Foucault.
Learn about economics. Naked Economics is a good start. Hazlitt's Economics in one lesson is also popular.
