Germany: So much better than you think!
I illustrate why German per capita GDP is "higher value" than US per capita GDP - and I argue that Germany will outperform during 2026-27. I'm also optimistic on Germany, and Europe, medium-term.

Speaking of debt: Framing, guilt, and economic choices
In many Germanic languages, the word for ‘debt’ also means ‘guilt’. This column explores whether the linguistic overlap leads to greater debt aversion in Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, and Switzerland. Using a guilt-laden term reduces willingness to borrow, lowers approval for government debt, and influences firms’ financing plans and politicians’ framing of fiscal policy. While support for public debt goes down with use of the laden term, the effect disappears when the purpose of the debt is clear. Linguistic framing may help guide borrowing toward socially optimal levels.

We study whether households actually demand and value economic narratives — and how these narratives shape beliefs and understanding.

Germany has 502 different social and welfare benefits.

No, I am not making this up. @apeichl.bsky.social counted them. www.ifo.de/DocDL/sd-202...
