We can agree that WTP is not a perfect measure, but still that the actual value is closer to 1-7 times rather than 100-1,000 times as much. In the podcast, we learn how New Ageism has been used to encapsulate the divisive political rhetoric, which pitches one generation against another is, to argue older people have too many rights and benefits, and this inequity is harming younger people. Countless studies have found that grandparents babysit, teach skills (baking, knitting, fishing, fixing), help with homework, reduce drug addiction and despair, support education, employment, and independence. Once again, this isn’t quite “everyone is equal,” but it’s much closer than 100-1,000 fold difference. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

And third, political leaders advocate lower test rates, protecting themselves but also protecting old people from young rage. Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places. Elizabeth Williamson and her team studied 17 million people in England, all registered for national health care. Etsy’s 100% renewable electricity commitment includes the electricity used by the data centres that host Etsy.

But in terms of policy priorities (if we can interpret public budgets that way), society clearly favors the old.

I asked myself this question when I recently spoke to a taxi driver who came to Germany from Pakistan twenty years ago. com, the Sell on Etsy app, and the Etsy app, as well as the electricity that powers Etsy’s global offices and employees working remotely from home in the US.To briefly summarize: Caplan believes that young lives (10 year olds) are worth 100-1,000 as much as old lives (80 year olds). Massive, longitudinal, multi-national studies (SHARE, HRS, AARP) plus hundreds of small studies find that older people contribute more than they consume. That maskless stranger, the phrase "OK Boomer," Glenn Beck on the radio suggesting that old people might need to die “to save the country”: all imply that old lives matter less than young ones. For my last point, let me zoom out and mention again why we are discussing this question in April 2021.

And I don’t mean to appeal to authority here, but Caplan does not just have a beef with me, but with almost the entire VSL literature. This is the same Aldy as the other chart, but this is published along with Viscusi, who essentially invented this literature. The first in undeniably true on average, the second is probably true almost all the time, and I’m not sure on the third, but I’m willing to admit it’s not a slam dunk either way.

People who can no longer make active contributions to the lives of others and yet still give us gifts every day: with the courage to face life, with an undaunted good mood, with a grateful smile, with a hug, with life wisdom, with their serenity and contentment. Some (95,235) were attributed to the coronavirus, and some (27,065) were “excess,” more than average, but not listed as COVID deaths.

And the young don’t support Social Security because they expect to benefit from it: about 2/3 think they will receive nothing! The ratings/reviews displayed here may not be representative of every listing on this page, or of every review for these listings.As Kristen Hawkes and hundreds of others have proven with the “grandmother hypothesis,” before modern times, millions of babies and young children survived because their grandmothers fed them, kept them from danger, gave them potions and herbs to make them well.
