The Velocity of Money for Beginners

Raising Taxes Very Rarely Results In As Much Revenue As One Expects You have to do it the hard way by improving the health of the economy, no alternatives. The best way to increase governmental tax receipts is to increase the health of the underlying economy so the velocity of money is higher.  Countries often find this out the hard way.  In the United States, individual states find it out the hard way, as well. https://www.joshuakennon.com/the-velocity-of-money-for-beginners/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q59tZKP0HME Quantity Theory of Money

Sex Redefined: The Idea of 2 Sexes Is Overly Simplistic

Biologists now think there is a larger spectrum than just binary female and male The baby was fine—but follow-up tests had revealed something astonishing about the mother. Her body was built of cells from two individuals , probably from twin embryos that had merged in her own mother's womb. And there was more . One set of cells carried two X chromosomes , the complement that typically makes a person female; the other had an X and a Y . Halfway through her fifth decade and pregnant with her third child, the woman learned for the first time that a large part of her body was chromosomally male . “That's kind of science-fiction material for someone who just came in for an amniocentesis,” says James Sex can be much more complicated than it at first seems. According to the simple scenario, the presence or absence of a Y chromosome is what counts: with it, you are male, and without it, you are female. But doctors have long known that some people straddle the boundary— their sex chrom...

How to spot a liar

Lying is a cooperative act. It has no power in itself. Its power emerges when someone agrees to believe the lie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_6vDLq64gE

Domestic Violence

Image
Effects of domestic violence on children, result from witnessing domestic violence in a home where one of their parents are abusing the other parent, plays a tremendous role on the well-being and developmental growth of children witnessing the violence . Children who witness domestic violence in the home often believe that they are to blame, live in a constant state of fear and are 15 times more likely to be victims of child abuse. Close observation during an interaction can alert providers to the need for further investigation and intervention, such as dysfunctions in the physical, behavioral, emotional, and social areas of life , and can aid in early intervention and assistance for child victims. The physical effects of domestic violence on children, different than the effects of direct abuse, can start when they are fetus in their mother's womb , can result in low infant birth weights, premature birth, excessive bleeding, and fetal death, due to the mother's physical trauma...

Stopping Plastic Menace

Image
Suggestion for stopping the plastic menace Double or triple the rate of plastics and Make counters for getting back the extra incurred charge by depositing the plastics Any seller can make such counter, keep the plastic sorted and return back the plastic to the company who has produced it. Generic plastic counters can also be made where any plastic can be deposited, and some incentives to the people, such as mobile recharge or money can be given. Questions and Answers: Will it work? Plastic crushing units were installed in the railway platform and 10 rupees mobile recharge was being offered for some time. But now these are not functional. It didn't work because we are not charging plastic with double or triple rates, in other words, we are not taxing for single-use plastic. If people are charged extra, a lot extra for plastic, they will return back the plastic for recycling to get back their money. Go on increasing the selling price of plastic, and return pricing of plastic till e...

Human Population Control

A sex ratio distortion system for the control of the human pests through female foeticide, through foetal sex determination. A synthetic sex ratio distortion system for the control of the human malaria mosquito ‘Reforms Of India’s Inheritance Laws Inadvertently Increased Female Foeticide And Deaths In Infancy’ From the 1970s onwards, changes in inheritance legislation sought to empower women by strengthening their financial and social position and reducing dependence on male relatives. The traditional preference for sons was also supposed to lessen, because daughters, backed by possession of the family home, would be able to offer parents security in old age. Equally, this was expected to eradicate the dowry system, a key contributing factor to the perception of a daughter as a financial burden. Instead, the reforms appear to have had “unintended” effects leading to the “elimination of girls” , as social norms that organise family structures and alliances have not kept pace with change...

Nothing in Human Makes Sense Except in the Light of Economics

"Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution" is a 1973 essay by the evolutionary biologist and Eastern Orthodox Christian Theodosius Dobzhansky, criticising anti-evolution creationism and espousing theistic evolution. Through evolution, human behavior depends on incentives, and incentive structure is shaped by economics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=actEhnPE4VM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9uUIUqhrSQ Introduction to Incentives Even what you think depends on incentives, because good education depends on incentive structure. Public-private partnership schools & colleges and its implementation Do economist think that everyone is self-interested all the time? Of course not. We love our spouses and children just like everyone else! But economists do think that people respond in predictable ways to incentives of all kinds. Fame, power, reputation, sex, and love are all important incentives. Economist even think that benevolence responds to incentives...
