“Take chances, make mistakes. That’s how you grow.” – Mary Tyler Moore
Recall back the last mistake that you made while working. Regardless of whether it was a minor one, such as spilling the tea on a record seconds before you were due to present it. You’ll probably have felt a surge of frenzy and afterward had the burden of putting things right. Humans make mistakes. No one is immune to them, but if we simply apologize and move on as before, we’re in danger of recreating the same flaws.
Errors in the economy
The errors in the economy are not a new phenomenon but they have been getting more and more frequent in recent years. The most common error is the inflation rate which has been increasing since the 70s.
Some people think that it is because of the mistakes made by economists.
Others think that it is because of the problems with fixing these mistakes, as well as other factors like population growth and technological development.
For economists to fix these errors, they need to focus more on what is happening in the present and less on what happened in the past.
Rectifying the economic mistakes
To fix the economy, we need to focus on the following
Finance
We need to make it easier for businesses to get loans and reduce their interest rates. This will help them invest in their businesses and hire more workers, which will increase demand for goods and services and improve the economy’s performance overall.
Trade
We should be working together with other countries on trade agreements that are fair and balanced, so we can export more goods than we import. We should also try to reduce our trade deficit by buying more goods from other countries instead of selling them our products (which takes money out of circulation).
Capital
The government should use its powers as a lender of last resort to spur investment in new projects by private companies that can create jobs or produce goods and services that aren’t available from existing companies yet (such as robots or artificial intelligence systems).
Jobs
The solution is simple, there is nothing complex or exciting to be done. We need to generate more jobs. High employment levels lead to healthy economic growth. As a result, small businesses can hire additional staff, boosting economic growth and significantly reducingunemployment. In this way, citizens escape poverty and their standard of living improves overtime.
Repair the nation’s infrastructure
Job-oriented fiscal stimulus is the most effective short- and medium-term
tool to combat high unemployment and low growth. It makes sense, therefore, for governments to hire more workers for infrastructure projects that bear
fruit over a relatively long period.
The economy is a large, complex system that affects everyone. It’s important to be aware of the ways it impacts your finances and the world at large.
It’s not easy to fix the economy. But it is possible.
