tim harford: what prison camps can teach you about the economy

don039t miss new big think videos subscribe by clicking here: http:googlcptsv5economist tim harford explain the micro-economies of prison camps and babysitting coops even in these simple systems problems manifest that have macroeconomic analogs harford039s latest book is the undercover economist strikes back: http:googlp7p2yvtranscript: when we039re thinking about how economies work the tricky thing is that they039re systems and you look at any particular corner of the system and you039re gonna miss the big picture but the big picture039s complicated really complicated so what i wanted to try to do was to find examples of simple economic systems -- systems that were simple enough you could see all the moving parts working and you could understand how recessions worked and there were a couple of examples that i found one is not so famous it039s an example of a recession in a prison camp and the other is a lot more famous because paul krugman039s talked about it and that039s a babysitting co-op recession now these aren039t hypothetical examples these aren039t kind of you know textbook imaginary things these recessions actually happened and in the case of the babysitting co-op recession it was capitol hill washington dc the late 1970s it was written up in a learned journal and what happened was parents who joined this babysitting circle -- there were about 400 of them they were trying to keep track of who was looking after who039s kids and it039s difficult to keep all that straight on a spreadsheet and remember this is the seventies so you don039t have microsoft excel so they had these little tokens and they039d pass these tokens around and if you looked after somebody039s children then you would be given a token and then when you wanted someone to look after your children you039d give them a token so they had this currency and that039s great except what happened was when people who joined the babysitting co-op they were given these tokens and they didn039t have quite enough not enough babysitting could be bought with what they had so they thought to themselves why don039t i go and babysit for somebody else a few times and then i039ll have a good stack of these tokens and then once i have a good stack of these tokens then i039ll start going out myself and hiring babysitters the trouble is everybody in the babysitting co-op was doing exactly this and if everybody in the babysitting co-op was doing exactly this then no one039s able to get a job babysitting because everyone039s just trying to work for everyone else now there are a number of possible solutions to this one is that people would just agree hey this token that we039ve got that039s worth an hour039s babysitting let039s say it039s worth two hours babysitting let039s say you could buy twice as much babysitting with this token and that could potentially solve the problem but that039s not what people did people i think felt uncomfortable renegotiating the contract so a second thing you could do and they tried this was to legislate how often people had to go out so they came up with this rule that people had to go out at least twice a year now i don039t have a really hectic social life you know i039ve got three children i039m an economist you know i don039t go out that much but you know even i think that going out twice a year is not that much and if that039s your baseline that039s gonna kick start the babysitting economy you have a problem in the end the babysitting recession committee or the babysitting committee solved the problem by simply issuing more of this currency they printed more of these little tokens they handed more out they handed more out to people when they arrived they took fewer away from people when they left the babysitting co-op and that worked beautifully that kick started the whole thing and this massive long lasting recession suddenly evaporated which is great then they printed too many they had a hyperinflation problem and the economy crashed again but that just goes to show it039s not easy to run an economydirectedproduced by jonathan fowler elizabeth rodd and dillon fitton

hitchens - reasons to doubt theism

philosophy is doubt- michel de montaigne in a world of charlatans skepticism is a virtue and faith a vice in a world of suffering and extinction evolutionary naturalism is more probable than theistic intervention quoti always have to think too of a little boy sitting on the banks of a river in west africa who has a worm boring through his eyeball turning him blind before he039s five years old and i reply and say quotwell presumably the god you speak about created the worm as wellquot and now i find that baffling to credit a merciful god with that actionquot-david attenboroughcharles darwin--quotthat there is much suffering in the world no one disputes which is more likely that pain and evil are the result of an all-powerful and good god or the product of uncaring natural forces the presence of much suffering agrees well with the view that all organic beings have been developed through variation and natural selectionquotpaul draper:theism is less plausible than naturalism-natural selection accounts for all or almost all of the fantastic complexity we find in the living world:e: for a variety of biological and ecological reasons organisms compete for survival with some having an advantage in the struggle for survival over others as a result many organisms including many sentient beings never flourish because they die before maturity many others barely survive but languish for most or all of their lives and those that reach maturity and flourish for much of their lives usually languish in old age in the case of human beings and some nonhuman animals as well languishing often involves intense or prolonged suffering naturalism is by virtue of its smaller scope and greater simplicity a more plausible hypothesis than theism and also that naturalism has much greater predictive power than theismi can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing i think it039s much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong i have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty about different things but im not absolutely sure of anything and in many things i dont know anything about such as whether it means anything to ask why were here and what the question might mean i might think about a little but if i cant figure it out then i go to something else but i dont have to know an answer i dont feel frightened by not knowing things by being lost in a mysterious universe without having any purpose which is the way it really is as far as i can tell possibly it doesnt frighten merichard feynman
