5 Things Parents Should Look for in Their Children ’ s Medical Records
Here are five things I think parents should look for in their children’s medical records and have at their fingertips:
BMI Percent – Parents are often stunningly wrong about whether or not their children are at a healthy weight. We are so familiar with our kids that they often look normal to us even when they are not. And more than 75% of parents of overweight children aged 2 to 15 report never being told the child is overweight by the pediatrician.The Body Mass Index is a calculation that looks at appropriate weight for height for a given age and gender. If children’s BMI is below the 5th percentile, they are likel...

Employee Compensation Rose Just 3% in the Fourth Quarter
Alan ReynoldsThe fourth quarter ’s 3% year‐to‐year increase in hourly wages and benefits was lower than the 3.7% average increase since 1987, and even lower than the 3.1% norm during the horrific 2008 recession. That casts considerable doubt on the notion that inviting another inverted yield curve recession is a const ructive way to bring inflation down. Patience is working fine.Federal Reserve officials have been downplaying the 2.1% PCE inflation rate of the past six months by (1) expressing concern about select pieces of that average, and (2) suggesting that a generous seasonal adjustment (to statisticall...

The New Deal and Recovery, Part 23: The Great Rapprochement
George SelginWhat finally brought the Great Depression to an end? We ' ve seen that, whatever it was, it took place not during the 30s but sometime between then and the end of World War II, when a remarkable postwar revival occurred instead of the renewed depression many feared. We ' ve also seen that, while postwar fiscal and monetary policies weren ' t austere to the point of preventing that revival, they alone can ' t explain it, because they can ' t explain the reawakening of private business investment from its decade-and-a-half-long slumber.Animal SpiritsTo get to the bottom of that reawakening, we must first recall ...

Fed Shifts Attention from 2.1% PCE Inflation to Theoretical Wage Inflation in Services
Alan ReynoldsThe last Federal Open Market Committee meeting projected PCE inflation to slow to 2.1% by the end of 2025. Yet 2.1% turned out to be the actual average inflation rate in the second half of 2022. Rather than applaud that performance, Chairman Powell and other Fed officials have been changing the subject —away from prices toward wages, and to a suspicious subset of prices that excludes all good news about prices of goods and energy and future rent data in favor of “core services less housing.”“Fed Chair Jerome Powell and several colleagues shifted attention recently toward a narrower subset of labor ...

COVID-Bivalent Booster for Children: Should your child get one?
A recent study showed that there is a 43% increase in autoimmune diseases in the months following a COVID infection. And autoimmune diseases among kids were already on the rise. The question becomes how best to guard against COVID and the long tail of impact on children.
With some vaccines, it can be important for the whole community to take them because they help prevent transmission and help prevent the vulnerable among us from becoming infected. The COVID booster is a bit different than that. It decreases transmission little if any. It does boost antibodies for a period of time, it may make it a bit less likely that y...
