Inside Policy TalksGarett Jones: Yes, immigration DOES change host countriesImmigration has long been described as simply a net positive, and debated solely in economic terms – like jobs, wages, and GDP. But after decades of immigration from different parts of the world – with newcomers now making up increasingly large shares of the population in Canada, the United States, and other Western countries – people are starting to ask different questions. How does migration shape culture and trust? What impact does it have on social cohesion over time? To share his research on these issues, Garett Jones, an economics professor at George Mason University, joins Inside Policy Talks. Jones, author of The Cu...

City Cast AustinA Flooding Update and What’s Killing Central Texas Bees?The death toll continues to rise from the Fourth of July Central Texas flooding, and Camp Mystic is grieving the loss of 27 campers and counselors. But the main focus of today’s City Cast Austin episode is the massive 65% annual loss reported this year in our local Central Texas honeybee colony over last year, and it turns out, there’s a mite to blame. So, scientists now are experimenting with breeding bees that are mite-resistant — more specifically, that will bite off mite’s legs and kill them before the mites can kill the bees.

歌厅《文化移植》/《The Culture Transplant》📚《文化移植》：移民如何塑造新家园的经济与未来？🌍🤔 移民会完全融入新环境吗？Garett Jones在《文化移植》中给出了颠覆性的答案：文化会像DNA一样，随移民迁移并在新土地上“生根发芽”！ 这本书的核心观点是“文化移植”——移民带来的母国文化特质（如勤奋、信任度、家庭观），会深刻且持久地影响他们所到之处的经济、政府乃至创新能力。🚀 “人民比地方更重要”作者引用Putterman & Weil等学者的研究，提出了“移民调整后”的历史指标。简单说，一个国家今天的繁荣，与其现有人口祖先在1500年前的“国家历史”（S）、“农业历史”（A）和“技术历史”（T）息息相关。这个“SAT得分”（尤其T分量最重）比单纯看这片土地的古老历史更能预测未来！这意味着，当大规模人口迁移发生，是“人民”的文化基因在塑造新的繁荣。🎭 “同化”是个神话？研究表明，移民后代（甚至第四代！）在信任度、节俭观、对政府角色的看法等方面，仍显著保留其祖籍国的影子。完全的文化同化？更像是个美好的愿望。作者还提出了有趣的“意大利面理论”：文化影响是双向的，移民也会悄悄改变主流文化。💡 创新引擎“I-7”与华人散居的启示全球的科技创新主要来自美、中、日、德等少数“I-7”国家。这些国家的创新力，同样与它们深厚的“技术历史”和制度文化紧密相连。而遍布东南亚的华人移民，则生动展示了“市场主导的少数族裔”如何凭借其文化特质，推动当地经济发展。⚠️ 多元化：双刃剑的挑战虽然“技能多元化”是好事，但族裔多元化本身，尤其当叠加上文化价值观的差异时，可能带来社会信任下降、冲突增多等挑战。这提醒我们，多元化并非天然的“力量”。🎯 核心启示：文化具有强大的粘性和可移植性。一个国家的未来，很大程度上取决于其人民所承载的文化遗产。因此，在思考移民政策、社会融合等问题时，我们不能忽视这股塑造历史的无形力量。就像书中所说，阿斯加德不是一个地方，而是她的人民！文化，才是那只能下金蛋的鹅的“灵魂”。完整笔记https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/hsYGJDwTgDQDQ6jNQaNQWg

Innovation HubShould We Dial Back Democracy?How much democracy is too much? Societies have been toying with different democratic models — from how often to hold elections, to who gets to vote and what the public can vote on — for centuries. Garett Jones, an economist and former Senate staffer, argues the current setup in the U.S. desperately needs some tinkering.
Jones says the ancient Greeks, who granted brief political mandates and gave some citizens direct input on law, would be shocked by our modern American politics: “you’re letting people have power for six years?” But he believes our retreat from direct democracy has been p...

American Monetary Association369: 10% Less Democracy & Hive Mind, How Your Nation's IQ Matters by Dr. Garett Jones, BB&T Professor Mercatus, George Mason UniversityHow do you define Democracy? Dr. Garett Jones and Jason Hartman traverse through a broad range of capitalism and democracy played out in different countries. Does one influence the other, or can they exist in moderation together? As well, Jones speaks to the typical choices of more educated people. Are groups more willing to cooperate if they have a higher or lower IQ?

It’s a skillset he recommends to all research economists precisely so they can take bigger risks in their careers—or at least be well-prepared to shape policy in an unelected position at a central bank.

Garett Jones returns to the podcast to discuss his book, 10% Less Democracy: Why You Should Trust Elites a Little More and the Masses a Little Less.
During the 2016 presidential election, both Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders argued that elites were hurting the economy. But, drawing together evidence and theory from across economics, political science, and even finance, Garett Jones says otherwise. In 10% Less Democracy, he makes the case that the richest, most democratic nations would be better off if they slightly reduced accountability to the voting public, turning up the dial on elite influence.

EconTalkGarett Jones on Fisher, Debt, and DeflationGarett Jones of George Mason University talks with EconTalk host Russ Roberts about the ideas of Irving Fisher on debt and deflation. In a book, Booms and Depressions and in a 1933 Econometrica article, Fisher argued that debt-fueled investment booms lead to liquidation of assets at unexpectedly low prices followed by a contraction in the money supply which leads to deflation and a contraction in the real side of the economy--a recession or a depression. Jones then discusses the relevance of Fisher's theory for the current state of the economy in the aftermath of the financial crisis.

They found that 42% of workers hired had been unemployed. The remainder came from other jobs or from outside the labor force such as retirement or school. Is 42% a big number or a small number?
