Ep. 91: Quality Adjustment (?) in College Tuition Inflation
Manage episode 386586429 series 3283645
In this episode, the Inflation Guy considers the question of why college tuition inflation has consistently run drastically faster than headline inflation. Is it a productivity question, or a quality question? And what does 'quality' mean in the context of college education? There are a lot of complex issues to be considered here, which ordinarily would mean you shouldn't ask someone who does his best thinking in the shower, but because we are talking about inflation we are right in his wheelhouse. It's an interesting thought process, which brings up parallels to medical care, rides at Disney, and fins on automobiles!
The Inflation Guy also editorializes on Germany's recent decision to stop further issuance of inflation-linked bonds.
