Episode notes
Heroic Assumptions Break Models
- Economic models use "heroic assumptions" and parables that oversimplify reality and break when you add real factors.
- Incorporating intertemporal decisions and financial intermediaries collapses many standard identities like saving = investment.
Investment Often Equals Emission
- Modern investment often behaves like emission rather than direct translation of savings into productive investment.
- Prices and investment decouple through speculation and financialization.
Don't Rely On Parable Models
- Question the canonical parable-based curriculum and test models against real-world institutional detail.
- Avoid relying on textbook parlors like single-good, no-money models for policy or market decisions.
