Democrats are getting worried because President Biden’s approval ratings have continued to drop for seven straight months. Additionally, Americans found it insulting after Joe had the gall to brag about job gains and rising wages.

Why is this being treated as being breaking news?

CDC admitted a year ago, that on average, people who die with covid have 4 co-mobities.

“Anti vaxer died of coronavirus” is classic confirmation bias.

‍Some things never change! 🤦🤦‍♀️‍♂️

This year (again!) Microsoft came back to its old tricks to get an edge on the competition. Here are some thoughts from the Vivaldi CEO @jonsvt. 👇

I love because its basic principles are so powerful and generalisable (ie, it's not just “about ”).

I started using Greg 's very popular textbook _“Principles of Economics”_ as a reference a few years ago, and since then I find myself applying its “ten principles of economics” often in everyday life.

This week I learnt that David has been teaching his own “ten pillars of economic wisdom” for decades. Those seem good, too.

So I decided to merge both!

Hereby I present the main insights of economics condensed in **fourteen principles of economics**. Even if you don't like econ as a subject, you'd do well to heed these ideas:

👉 In common (_Mankiw ≃ Henderson_):

* Rational people **think at the margin**. ≃ Economic thinking is thinking on the margin.
* People respond to **incentives**. ≃ Incentives matter; incentives affect behavior.
* **Trade** can make everyone better off. ≃ The only way to create wealth is to move resources from a lower-valued to a higher-valued use. Corollary: both sides gain from exchange.
* A country's standard of living depends on its ability to produce **goods and services**. ≃ The only way to increase a nation’s real income is to increase its real output.
* **Markets** are usually a good way to organize economic activity. ≃ Competition is a hardy weed, not a delicate flower.
* Society faces a short-run trade-off between **inflation and unemployment**. ≃ Creating jobs is not the same as creating wealth.

👉 Mankiw's:

* People face **trade-offs**.
* The cost of something is **what you give up** to get it.
* **Governments** can sometimes improve market outcomes.
* Prices rise when the government **prints too much money**.

👉 Henderson's:

* TANSTAAFL: There ain’t no such thing as a **free lunch**.
* **Information** is valuable and costly, and most information that’s valuable is inherently decentralized.
* Every action has **unintended consequences**; you can never do only one thing.
* The **value** of a good or a service is subjective.
