How Do Cost-of-Living Adjustments (COLA) Work?
How Do Cost-of-Living Adjustments (COLA) Work? What Is Next Year’s COLA? Everyone notices how prices for groceries, rent, gas, and other essentials seem to climb over time. When prices go up, fixed incomes — like pensions, government benefits, and some retirement plans — lose real value unless they are adjusted. That’s where cost-of-living adjustments, or COLAs, come...

How is economic growth calculated?
How Is Economic Growth Calculated? The Number That Governs Nations A curious feature of modern society is that governments can disagree on taxation, trade, immigration, industrial policy, and even the proper role of the state, yet they almost universally agree on one objective: economic growth. Presidents celebrate it. Central bankers forecast it. Investors obsess over it. Journalists report...

How is economic growth measured?
How Is Economic Growth Measured? The Number That Rules the World—And Why It Is Never Enough Every few months, governments release a figure that can move markets, influence elections, alter investment plans, and shape public perceptions of prosperity.

Short-run vs long-run analysis
Short-Run vs Long-Run Analysis Economists often pretend that time is merely a neutral backdrop. It is not. Time rearranges incentives, redistributes power, and alters what societies consider possible. A policy that appears efficient in the short run may slowly erode institutional trust. A painful adjustment today may generate extraordinary productivity gains twenty years later. And nowhere is...

What is anchoring bias?
What Is Anchoring Bias? The First Number That Quietly Shapes Everything After A person is asked whether the population of a city is more or less than 5 million. Then they are asked to estimate the actual population. Most answers cluster around that initial figure, even when it is clearly arbitrary. If the first number had been 20 million instead, estimates would shift upward. Nothing...

What is anchoring bias?
What Is the Anchoring Bias? The First Number That Quietly Organizes Thought A person is asked whether the height of a mountain is more or less than 2,000 meters. Then they are asked to estimate its actual height. Even if the initial number is arbitrary, their estimate tends to cluster around it. If the number had been 10,000 instead, their estimate would shift upward. Nothing about the...
