Superb column by @jburnmurdoch.bsky.social

A must-read for anyone interested in why fertility is falling, and how to respond.

“Ordinarily I would say that while tariffs are bad, they don’t cause recessions,” Paul Krugman says on this episode of “The Ezra Klein Show.” “What’s unique about this situation is that the protectionism is unpredictable and unstable. And it’s that uncertainty that is the recessionary force.”

The trade economist Paul Krugman parses the ‘layers of wrongness’ in Trump’s tariff policy.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

The illustration depicts a person wearing a graduation cap throwing the "X" logo into a trash bin. Nearby, a blue bird lies on the ground with X-shaped eyes, symbolizing its demise. The scene is set in a simple, grassy landscape under a cloudy sky, metaphorically representing the abandonment of X (formerly Twitter).

Happy Tariff Day to all who celebrate!

(This, of course, excludes the countless economists who’ve repeatedly warned that tariffs on Canada, Mexico, China etc. are a terrible idea for the U.S. economy… but who’s listening to them anyway?Maybe one day we’ll need a holiday to celebrate them.)
