Prescott Abstract Goal of the lecture is to show fundamental roots of contemporary crisis. First of all, is not enough saying about recession of US economy. Problem is much serious one American economy is deeply depressed. Contemporary economic problem is not just phase in the business cycle caused by temporary chaos in the financial market. Economic activity in US suffer from structural weaknesses, so there is little hope to see strong recovery. We should be pessimistic about growth prospects in the US but fortunately future of Polish economy seems to be brighter. Thanks to the catching-up process and quite open and not overregulated economy, economic growth in Poland is going to be dynamic in the nearest future, so we should be optimistic about our incomes and wealth. The history of U.S. economic growth and the current depression Sometimes people are too short-term in their thinking. What is the picture of the last 150 years in the U.S.? A relatively constant growth rate. A couple of percent increase in per capita GDP annually a trend line (see Figure 1). Between 1929 and 1933 GDP fell 40 percent relative to trend (see Figure 2). But, in the postwar period economic growth has been stable.
3 MBA 2/2010 Artyku!y 3 About ten years ago a group led by Lee Ohamian started studying the Great Depression (and many other depressions of the 20 th century), using the tools of dynamic economic theory. There have been many depressions and they continue to occur. Fortunately, we now know so much more than we did ten years ago Figure 1 U.S. real GDP, (log scale) Source: Robert E. Lucas, Jr. Currently, the U.S. economy is depressed about 8 percent that depression occurred over the last 16 months. Figure 2 shows percentage deviations from trend. The straight line in the middle signifies a constant percentage growth about 2 percent due to the living standards and 1 percent due to population. You can see the huge drop below trend from 1929 to You can also see that the economy has been pretty stable generally within 5 percent of trend in the postwar period. Hopefully the current economy won t get too bad. Looking at detrended GDP to emphasize the economy s booms and busts (Figure 3) we see first a technology-driven boom in the early 1960s, when new technologies mainframe computers, jet airplanes came along. The big expansion in the 1980s was of course because of the tax rate cut. The boom in the 1990s is understated in Figure 3. As my colleague Ellen McGrattan and I found, that understatement is the result of a huge amount of investment that was not measured;

5 MBA 2/2010 Artyku!y 5 intangible investment R&D, starting up new businesses, training workers, advertising, making people aware of your product, all these things are expensed by businesses. Therefore, they are not counted as part of output, but they are output. Measured output is GDP; true output includes these intangible capital investments. So the boom in the 1990s was actually bigger by a few percent than Figure 3 indicates. I say that the U.S. economy is depressed, which surprises some people. Most say we are in a recession and what they mean by that statement they will not say, probably because they do not have a definition of recession. There once was a commonly accepted definition of recession. This was before economists had a tested theory of business cycles, which are fluctuations of output and employment about trend. If output was contracting the economy was in a recession; if output was expanding the economy was in an expansion. Then convoluted language was developed to talk about fluctuations in economies experiencing growth miracles. Periods when growth rates in Japan in the 1950s and 1960s were below average were referred to as a growth recession. Students of business cycles are shifting back to the language that an economy is in a depression if it is significantly below trend and in prosperity if it is significantly above trend. Being a student of business cycles, this is the language that I use. The newspapers report that the growth rate of the U.S. economy from the second to the third quarter of 2009 was 3.5 percent and that they economy had started to recover. Given this growth rate is only slightly above historical averages, the correct statement is that the economy stopped getting more depressed. In terms of level that is nearly a 0.9 percent change, which is a small number. Insofar as this preliminary growth rate estimate stands up, it implies that the economy is not getting sicker, but not getting sicker is not the same as recovering. In fact this number was revised down a couple months later when more complete data was available from 3.5 percent to 2.2 percent. Given that trend growth is higher than this number the economy became a little more depressed if the GDP number is used to measure the output of the economy. But GDP measures only part of output and when the unmeasured part is included almost surely the economy became significantly more depressed between the second and third quarter of There were big declines in intangible investments. Businesses cut way back on hiring and making that big unmeasured investment in training new workers. They cut back R&D expenditures which are unmeasured investments that increase future production possibilities. This is why I say almost surely the economy became more depressed in the third quarter of the year than it was in the second quarter. Looking at the fraction of the civilian population aged 16 and older who are employed (Figure 4) we see strong supporting evidence that the U.S. economy is depressed and becoming more so.
6 6 Artyku!y MBA 2/2010 The employment-population ratio understates by how much market hours are depressed. Why? The fraction of workers that are part-time workers increased so they are employed, but they are working fewer hours. Also the decline in employment was on average greater in occupations with longer workweeks Figure 4 U.S. Employment-Population Ratio (Monthly, January 2002 value = 100) Source: U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics, Current Population Survey. What caused the current depression? As you can see in Figures 1, 2, and 3, the economy had been humming along nicely since the early 1980s. The U.S., and Europe too, had about 26 years of healthy growth. Then, in the beginning or middle of 2008 the U.S. economy started becoming depressed. Why? It wasn t the Fed Before the current depression began, some people liked to credit Alan Greenspan and the Federal Reserve Bank for the economic boom in the early 1990s. But the Fed was not responsible for that boom. Nor is it responsible for the current depression. In fact, the Fed did what it should have given the situation in 2008 and Dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models like the ones Finn Kydland and I worked on are often used by the Neo-Keynesians (they use the real business cycle methodology with
7 MBA 2/2010 Artyku!y 7 interesting features such as sticky wages and constraints on changing prices). Those models all come up with the same answer: it is the real factors that matter, not what the Fed did. (Now, the Fed is important when it comes to inflation, but the Fed s policies do not determine real economic activity.) It wasn t the financial crisis It was not the financial crisis either that depressed the U.S. and world economies. In fact, the shortage of liquidity was handled quite well by the Fed. People have been saying for almost two years that businesses couldn t borrow, couldn t get money from the banks. That s wrong. The total amount of borrowing liabilities of the household sector, both directly (mortgages, credit cards) and indirectly in the business that households are partial or full owners of actually went up in And the composition of that borrowing pretty much stayed the same. Table 1 shows this. Table 1 Liabilities of Households and of Nonfinancial Businesses They Own End 2007 End 2008 Total Liabilities (bililions $) 31,875 32,341 Composition Share (%) Mortgages Other Loans Corporate Bonds Security Credits Trade Payable Other Source: Federal Reserve Board Flow of Funds, Table B.100, B.101, and B.1023, September 2009 Release. As an aside, everybody says that this is the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression. But that is wrong; there wasn t a big financial crisis during the Great Depression. That Depression was well on its way before the banks started failing. Even the total amount of liabilities of banks that failed were modest there were a many banks that failed, but they were all small, and most of those failures occurred either at the end of 1930 and beginning of 1931 or at the beginning of The failing at the beginning of 1933 happened because Franklin D. Roosevelt in December 1932 said the United States might go off the gold standard. This led people to run down to their bank and got their money because they expected the value of money to fall in terms of gold, which it did indeed happen when Roosevelt took the United States off the gold standard in March 1933.
8 8 Artyku!y MBA 2/2010 Business cycles, immigration, and bad policies So it wasn t the Fed, it wasn t the financial crisis what did cause the depression? It was partly the result of business cycles there was a mini technology boom that ended in late 2007 and there was a real estate bust that began in late Both the current and the Great Depression started with a near complete cut-off of immigration. During the Great Depression, President Hoover thought that foreigners were taking Americans jobs (he was an engineer; he thought in terms of physical systems and not in terms of economics). He bragged about sending all the Italians back to Italy (the U.S. had a large number of Italian immigrants at that time). A dramatic decrease in immigration also contributed to the onset of the current depression. The U.S. shut off immigration in August Before that, the U.S. had a million people net immigrating each year. In 2008 only 100,000 more foreigners came to the United States than returned to their country of origin. But the principal cause of both the Great Depression and this current depression is bad policies. The depression gave excuses for bad policies, or the expectations of bad policies. What you expect to be done in the future determines what you do now. There is a famous study by Thomas Sarger on France in the 1920s. France was in bad fiscal shape. The people got together and agreed to reforms that resulted in fiscal health being restored. Good things started happening even before the reforms were instituted, because people believed that these agreed to reforms would be instituted, as they were. We see a similar case in Australia around Do not think the economy is like a physical system. The economy has something called people. What they do depends upon what they think will happen. That is why economics is so much more interesting than the natural sciences. Economists deal with people. As I said earlier, about 10 years ago we started studying the Great Depression, so we now know a lot about its causes. There is a volume edited by Timothy J. Kehoe and myself. You can get it cheaply on Amazon.com, because it was paid for by the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis. Now we know that our perceptions of President Hoover were wrong. We used to think of him as a conservative guy, a market guy. In fact, he was not; he was a planner. He was an interventionist. He was not like the presidents that preceded him, Coolidge and Harding (whose policies fostered healthy economic growth). In both the Great Depression and the current one stimulus plans spending plans were instituted. Hoover said that they were going to increase tax rates, and did. Just the expectations of these future tax increases depressed the economy well before these promised increases were implemented.
9 MBA 2/2010 Artyku!y 9 Ask any of the young people in any major department of economics and they will all agree that spending stimuli are not stimuli, but depressants. President Bush s tax rebate in the spring of 2008 was meant to be a stimulus, but it was a depressant. I had my undergraduates they are honors students using economic theory to predict that would happen as the result of the tax rebate. They correctly predicted that this tax rebate would depress the economy. Trying to argue that spending stimulates the economy is equivalent to arguing that cigarettes are good for your health the scientific evidence proves that it is not. Mr. Obama as a Senator consistently voted against free trade. He shifted a little bit as President in November 2009 after Asia and economists pressured him to be a bit more pro-globalization, pro-trade. Both in the 1930s and now the White House started managing the economy. The market is a great mechanism. I recently started saying that the market mechanism is not without its problems, but it is so much better than anything else. This is the Winston Churchill comment for democracy: it is a lousy system, but it is much better than any alternative. So the depression was caused not by market failures but by failures of the central government. Established economic theory states that stimulus plans depress the economy. You do not spend your way to prosperity. I must compliment the Polish central government for not adopting bad policies. In the late 1960s there was a revolution in macroeconomics led by Robert E. Lucas. Finn Kydland and I worked to develop the tools and methodologies for dynamic stochastic equilibrium models that interacted with the national accounts and other data to teach us more about how policies and economic output actually interact. We learned that one reason why bad policies depress the economy is that they destroy perceived profitable investment opportunities for businesses. If you are a business person and you expect higher tax rates in the future, what do you do? You distribute more profits to yourself now and invest less. You do not hire young people and train them that is a big investment. That is exactly what the business journals recommended for businesses to do. Despite what you might read in the newspaper, during the Great Depression businesses had the funds to invest. They had huge cash flows. You can do two things with that cash: reinvest or distribute it to the owners. What did businesses in the 1930s do with all their cash flows? They paid huge dividends, cut their investment and investment went negative. Why? Because of a lack of perceived profitable investment opportunities. I would say that the reason for the current depression in the U.S. is the same, though on a lesser scale. Today the White House is much more constrained by informed public opinion economic science has advanced a lot. We know so much more now than we did in 1929.
10 10 Artyku!y MBA 2/2010 At the same time, U.S. banks are lending huge amounts to the Federal Reserve Banks. That is called excess reserves. Banks get a very small return on this investment 0.25 percent nominal (a negative real). Why do the banks lend to the Federal Reserve, rather than to businesses? I think is this because of a lack of profitable lending opportunities. What would make the economy boom? So bad policies caused the depression; what would make the economy boom? Cut marginal effective tax rates. People will work more. Businesses will invest more. Output and personal consumption will increase (supply creates its own demand). Do not erect barriers to the use of better production processes. Do not subsidize inefficiency and lose a decade of growth, like Japan did in the 1990s (when things went great in Western Europe and in North America). Doing the opposite raising tax rates rather than cutting them will have the opposite effect; despite what the U.S. government might have us believe, increasing tax rates will not increase tax revenues. You probably heard of something called the Laffer Curve. It shows the relationship between marginal tax rates and tax revenue and demonstrates that at some point, increasing the marginal tax rate will not increase tax revenue. If the tax rate is 100 percent, you do not get any revenue and nothing is produced. If the tax rate is 0 percent output is high but tax revenues are obviously 0. At some point, tax revenue actually falls when the tax rate is increased GDP Tax Revenue Tax Rate, t Figure 5 GDP and Tax Revenue per Capita Source: Edward C. Prescott class exercise: ECN 413.
11 MBA 2/2010 Artyku!y 11 In the U.S., Australia, and Japan the marginal tax rate is around 40 percent. So if an American works more and produces $100 worth of output, he gets to consume $60 worth of output either now or in the future. In Western Europe the marginal tax rate is around 60 percent; Poland is somewhere in between, probably around 50 percent. The UK is somewhere in between as well. While the effects of tax rates on output are important, welfare matters, too. Japan, for example, has a higher GDP per capita than Western Europe, yet welfare is lower. The Japanese do not get as much leisure ( non-market ) time, which has productive use. With a 50 percent tax rate, the value of non-market time is about half the value of the goods that you could produce with that time in the market sector. In Europe, for example, GDP is about 70 percent of the GDP of the U.S. Yet in terms of welfare, the lifetime consumption equivalence in Europe is about 85 percent that of the U.S. because the Europeans take more non-market leisure time than Americans do. We use the marginal rate of substitution degree in consumption and leisure as a proxy for the after-tax real wage rate. This relates current variables to each other. Of course, there are other factors in addition to the tax rate that affect labor supply. But the marginal tax rate is a big factor. In order to calculate the number of hours of work per person aged (my approximate for working-age population), you just sum up all the market hours and divide that by the population size. There is about 100 hours of non-sleeping time a week that a person has to allocate to the market and non-market. If you are sick and don t go to work, even if you get paid, it does not count as market hours. Neither do holidays, paid or not. It is about whether you work or not. By the way, I am quite surprised by how many hours Polish workers work a year: 1969 these are OECD numbers United States is 1792, Netherland is under 1400 (see Table 2). So the Poles are hardworking people. Why is the number of hours worked in Poland higher? Because Poles retire early. (Though I have learned today that some changes have been made to gradually increase the average retirement age here.)

12 12 Artyku!y MBA 2/ Current U.S. 10 Europe Tax Rate Figure 6 Welfare Gains and Losses Source: Edward C. Prescott (2002) Prosperity and Depressions. American Economic Review, No. 92, 1 15 May Tax rates affect people s decisions about how to allocate their 100 weekly hours of market and non-market time. And that affects GDP. Simply put, per capita GDP is higher in the U.S. than Western Europe because tax rates are lower and people work more hours. Figure 6 makes clear that welfare is like a parabola; loss goes up by the square, roughly. Europe in Figure 6 refers to Germany, France, Italy and Spain. Notice that if you increase the marginal tax rate above 40 percent, GDP goes down so you end up with a bigger share of a smaller pie. Tax revenues actually change very little. Clearly, those people who think you can finance economic growth through higher taxes are wrong. What does the CBO (Congressional Budget Office) do? They are ordered by the Congress to ignore science and say that people do not respond to incentives and assume that people will work the same amount if the tax rates change clearly they will not. So policy matters. The Japanese take about as much non-market time as the Americans, but they are not as productive as the Western Europeans and the North Americans are. Why? Mercantilist policies. The Japanese are smart, hardworking people; it s the system. If you were to move Japan to the coast of Europe and they would join the EU, they would suddenly become a lot richer GDP would be the same as in the U.S. The lesson? Macro theory works. Economics has become a hard science. The dynamic equilibrium growth model, extended to include the allocation of time for market and non-market productive activities tracked actual economic growth just beautifully. Until it didn t. In the 1990s, Ellen McGrattan and I saw a big deviation in the relationship between economic output and hours worked people were working more than our models said
13 MBA 2/2010 Artyku!y 13 they should. Did they get a contagious case of harworkingness? The answer, it turned out, was intangible capital investment. Business students were dropping out of business schools. Why? To set up businesses, to become entrepreneurs, and to get rich. Normally booms are driven by 67 percent labor (hours of work) and 33 percent productivity (output per hour). Yet in the 1990s boom hours worked was 125 percent this is for GDP. And -25 percent for productivity. Ellen and I figured out how to deduce the size of that unmeasured investment: by assuming that business people are pretty smart, that they invest on margin in tangible capital (the things you capitalize) and in intangible capital (R&D, advertising, starting new businesses, training workers), so that the after-tax returns are equated. The boom in the 1990s was a bigger boom than the statistics indicated everybody knew that. The cabdriver in LA knew that, because everybody was throwing him $20 tips. Today, people aren t tipping the cabbie $20 and they re not investing in intangible capital, either. Outlook for the world s economic future So just as bad policies led to the depression (in 1929 and today), good policies (like reductions in the marginal tax rate that foster investment) could restart the economic engine. And, certainly, how countries respond is not predetermined. There have been many other financial crises in history afterwards, sometimes good things happen, and sometimes they don t. Finland had a crisis caused by the collapse of the Soviet Union, 140 GDP per capita Detrended at 2%, 1992 = Finland Japan Figure 7 Japan and Finland s Experiences Very Different after Financial Crises Source: GGDC (PPP-EKS).

Japan had a financial crisis in 1992 but they did not do well. They had zombie banks. They subsidized inefficiency. They followed Larry Summers recommendation of spending to stimulate the economy. They lost a decade of growth. And there is the dramatic example of differences between Mexico and Chile, which had very similar financial crises in They were both big debtors in dollar terms. And the interest rate on the dollar went way up in that period, to 15 or 16 percent (before that, the real interest rate was negative). The price of their principal commodity export (copper in Chile and oil in Mexico) fell. Chile responded by reforming, setting up a sound financial system that channeled savings to productive investments. The result? Chile had a growth miracle. Mexico didn t reform and lost a decade and a half of growth. Though in time I think Mexico will start doing better. They are setting up better economic and political institutions and that takes time. 140 GDP per capita Detrended at 2%, 1980 = Chile Mexico Figure 8 Mexico and Chile s Experiences Very Different after Financial Crises Source: GGDC (GK-PPP). Yet I am not optimistic about the U.S. And prospects for economic recovery in the Southern part of Europe (Spain and Italy, for example) do not look so good either. It seems like Spain and the U.S. are following similar policies, which do not bode well for economic recovery. However, other countries are already coming out of the depression. Poland continued to grow steadily throughout the period (see Table 3). Australia was the other OECD country that did as well. And countries like China, India, Singapore and Brazil have already resumed healthy growth. In my forecast, Europe will too. Growth will be particularly high in Central Europe it is catching up economically. It won t be long before Central Europe will have the same living standards as Western Europe (an extreme

By Central Europe I mean the eight European countries that joined the EU in Figure 9 shows per capita GDP of that region relative to the U.S. (these are purchasing power parity numbers). Over the last fifteen years Central Europe has done a lot of catching up (steady growth has slowed down a bit recently, but it will come back). GDP in the EU-15 is currently at 70 percent of the U.S.; in another 15 or 20 years, the new members are going to be at that same level. So Poland is doing well. It is good to see that some are doing well. And it is not at the expense of others. The Polish people deserve credit for this CE Figure 9 Central European (CE-8) Countries GDP as Percent of U.S. GDP Source: GGCD dataset.
16 16 Artyku!y MBA 2/2010 In terms of development, why did Poland do better than East Germany? East Germany got half the GDP subsidies from West Germany. They also got constraints; they had to pay very high wages to keep the unions in West Germany happy. I think East Germany would have done better if it became a separate country. For example, Slovakia (which was a poor province of Czechoslovakia) has narrowed the gap with the Czech Republic. Slovakia did not get any subsidies. Argentina has a huge endowment of land, but they still integrated producing industrial and hightech goods. And it is good to see what they are trying to do there with some success, which is good for economic development (like the high-tech park, for example). Japan had a growth miracle, and so did South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore. A lot of countries are narrowing the gap. So the average income of the people in the world relative to the income in the richest countries industrial leaders has gone way up. It started going up in about Before that, the difference between the average and the world leaders was increasing. Some countries started this modern economic growth earlier. These countries traded industrial goods. Note that I m not talking about oil, from which some small countries have gotten rich, which is more like a curse than a help. Latin America, on the other hand, is not catching up. If we go back to 1900, GDP in Latin America was about 25 percent of GDP of the industrial leader; and it s about 25 percent still today. Why the failure to catch up? With some minor exceptions (like Chile), Latin America is not economically integrated Why do some countries catch up and others don t? The rise of the U.S. is a good example of the power of economic integration. After the Civil War, U.S. GDP was only about 80 percent of GDP in the UK, but by the late 1920s it was 123 percent (see Table 4). Why did this happen? The U.S. became economically integrated. Economic integration between U.S. states was made possible by dramatically lower transportation costs (which fell by a factor of 10 in the 19 th century). (Interesting aside: In the beginning of Table 4 U.S. GDP per capita as Percent of UK GDP per capita Source: Maddison. Year GDP per capita: US relative to UK
17 MBA 2/2010 Artyku!y 17 the 19 th century it was too expensive to ship grain from the Midwest to the East. So what did they do? They made it into whiskey, which has a lot more valuable unit weight and could be more easily shipped. What did the people who were digging the Erie Canal get? Their rations were a pint of whiskey a day. The Americans were a bunch of drunks. When the cost of transportation came down, the alcoholic consumption came way down too.) Also, the states of the U.S. had great economic autonomy. The used to say the United States are they did not say the United States is The Federal government could only rely on direct taxes, excise taxes, and tariffs (a high excise tax on alcohol was probably another reason why the consumption of alcohol fell). But the Supreme Court ruled that the states could not interfere with the interstate movement of people and goods, so there was free trade. It is interesting to see what happened: economic integration led to huge growth. Initially, the European Union was thought to do the same for Europe as free trade and competition fostered economic growth. The six original EU members Italy, France, Germany and the Benelux countries were about 53 percent as productive as the U.S. for the first half of the 20 th century. After signing the Treaty of Rome in 1957, over the next 25 or 30 years, they caught up to the U.S. in terms of productivity. The late joiners to the EU Denmark, Ireland and the UK and even later ones that joined 1995 (Austria, Finland and Sweden) were at the same level as the original EU countries until the Treaty of Rome, but lost a lot of ground relative to the original members, until they too joined (see Table 5). Table EU Joiners (Austria, Finland & Sweden) and Switzerland Lose Ground Year Relative to Original EU Source: GGDC dataset. In 1950 there were only 14 countries with GDP equal to 50 percent or more of the leading country. In 2005 there were 30. I think Poland will join this club in around Countries like the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Cyprus will do it sooner, as will Chile. As economic integration progresses, economic growth booms and we all become richer.
18 18 Artyku!y MBA 2/2010 Why economic integration fosters growth So economic integration is the means by which countries catch up economically to industrial leaders (the UK in the late 1800s and the U.S. today). But what is it about economic integration that fosters growth? One factor is technology the lever to richness. But you need access to the technology and you need to use it. It is easy to produce in inefficient ways. People are very good at being inefficient. Openness gives access to technology and lowers the barriers to its use. Poland started developing its share of technology capital and the rest of the world will get access to that, which is good for the rest of the world and good for Poland. Openness means that some industries have constraints in their low productivity. The threat of foreign competition is often sufficient to make that industry productive. Based on a number of studies in cooperation with the McKenzie Institute it was found that industries come up to world level if they are exposed to foreign competition. Why did the original EU countries catch up? The EU countries became economically integrated because of the threat of competition for example, in Spain from French companies or German companies. So Spanish companies became more efficient. Furthermore, if you get more productive, in the Polish industry, for example, you face an elastic demand with exports. That means the amount of your sales goes up by a bigger percentage than the increase in your productivity and employment goes up. Unions like changes that increase employment. (If on the other hand, demand is inelastic, and more production and lower price reduce employment, then you are going to get a lot of resistance.) There is also the dramatic example of the Minnesota iron ore industry. In 1982 President Reagan opened up the U.S. mining industry to competition from Brazilian mines. What did Minnesota do? They changed work practices at the mines. The same equipment, the same work, but they almost doubled productivity overnight. They cut the employment of skilled machinists in half. What happened to those people? They went down to the twin cities, Minneapolis and St. Paul, and got better-paid jobs. They were productive and talented people. Openness fosters change it cannot be forced; you cannot just change barriers or the work rules of the ones working in given industries. They tried to change the medical industry in the U.S. What happened? The medical establishment got the states to change the rules and protect them. But what we really need is more competition and fewer barriers. And that may be happening some countries are starting to develop medical tourism (Indonesia, Malaysia, and Mexico, for example). In India, you can get a bypass heart operation at about onefifth of the U.S. cost, with a free airplane ticket and tourist tour included. Complication rates are a lot lower there, too. Maybe they have the less difficult cases. But to sustain a good system you
19 MBA 2/2010 Artyku!y 19 have to have vested interest groups who want to sustain it. When you are in an organization like the EU, if you do not play by the rules, other people will retaliate against you. So the equilibrium is that people play by the rules and stay open. Another reason that economic integration makes integrated countries richer is diffusion of knowledge. When you have multinationals all around, you learn from them and they learn from you. It is a mutual benefit. I was over in Korea with the Samsung people, who are big in electronics and in finance (which makes up 17 percent of the Korean economy). I asked them, What about your multinationals? They said We have a place in Helsinki and in Austin, Texas. You know what is in Helsinki? Nokia. They had to be near that leader in electronics. What is down in Austin, Texas, besides the research university? Dell computers. Multinationals are of key importance in the diffusion of knowledge. But then, you have to protect the property rights of foreign multinationals. In World War I, the U.S. took over some of the German companies. They also took over the British companies in the media, and the U.S. was UK s ally in that war. It was not until 1976 that the rules were changed and the President could not just, for national defense reasons, seize titles to firms. They could still seize for the use, but they could not get the title, which means that they were probably going to go back. Direct investment in other countries helps foreign firms overcome barriers to adopting better technology. When the Japanese imposed voluntary quotas, Toyota responded by locating a plant in Kentucky. Kentucky is where the hillbillies live; it s not the industrial heartland of the United States. But the senators from Kentucky wanted that plant there and they used politics to block Washington from blocking it. Kentucky wanted these high-paying jobs. They liked the construction. A lot of supplier firms were created. Toyota had to do the same thing later to break into the EU. The company set up operation in Wales. Again, not the industrial heartland of Europe. Europe had free trade in cars, but the cars had to be inspected. And they had to include the port of Marseilles. And they could inspect one car per day. There were almost no Japanese cars in France, for example. Yet in Norway, over half the cars were from Japan. The fascinating fact is that the U.S. seems to be getting a great return on its foreign direct investment accounting profits are 9.5 percent. For foreigners who invest in the U.S. accounting profits are 3.2 percent. And it has been this way for a number of years. One reason is that the U.S. has a lot of technology capital. And the input on this capital is included in the accounting return, but it is not in the denominator it is intangible capital. The second reason that the return on U.S. foreign direct investment is so high is that with openness you can benefit from the use of technology abroad. If there are lower barriers (more openness), there is more production. What about the conclusion? I think Poland will catch up with Western Europe in about 15 years. I fear that the U.S. will lose a decade of growth, mimicking Japan in the 1990s. There has been
20 20 Artyku!y MBA 2/2010 a regime change in the U.S. Maybe it is temporary, maybe the American people will actually change. But even if America does lose this decade of growth, it will not have a big effect upon Poland. How well Poland does depends upon the Polish people. And I think Poland will do well.

Cheap and Free Halloween Events in London
Spooking shouldn't be such a drain on your resources, so where can you hang out with the ghouls and gals of the night this Halloween without spending big bucks? From blood-bathed bashes that won't break the bank, to free fancy dress forays with the freaky, check out our recommendations for some of the best cheap and free Halloween events in London right here.
Last updated on 24th October 2016
Select a venue on the map
With starter tickets coming from just £7.50, The Last Tuesday Society are not only hosting one of cheapest Halloween events in London, they're hosting one of the most unique and macabre nights in the history of All Hallows.
* Tries desperately to resist awful pun * You can run but you can't Hyde (not even sorry) from the Halloween shenanigans going down in Kensington this Saturday 29th. Leave your inhibitions at the door and go all out with your fancy dress choices (how else will you win the contest?), there's a special guest DJ dropping funky house, RnB and hip-hop jams and a free cocktail with your name on it if you're here before 10.30pm.
The best kind of Halloween bar crawl features free shots and unlimited pizza in the first venue, right? Exactly. BarHopping call out to all zombies and stranger things this Saturday 29th for a night of spooky shenanigans, with welcome shots and discount drinks on offer at each of the four nightspots around Soho!
Goldilocks, Little Red Riding Hood and Ariel are taking over Looking Glass Cocktail Club this Halloween for a sexy and seductive burlesque performance. Sip on decadent cocktails and revel in the 1920s settings as some of London's best performers take you on a Halloween tour de force, all from £10.
Cybil's House links up with The White Swan for a night of sheer terror this Halloween. Enter through the Haunted Maze and lose yourself in 3 rooms of warped and twisted nightmares, escaping to the Basement Dungeon Club with its 3 bars and 2 rooms of amazing music. Advanced tickets are only £5 and don't hold back when it comes to the fancy dress - there's cash prizes on offer for the best costumes.
Tequila Mockingbird are throwing a fun-time Halloween bash as they entice the Suicide Quad to come out and play. Dress up and join in the fun at the Putney bar as DJs spin some of the biggest tunes, there's special Halloween cocktails and a £50 bar tab for the best dressed.
What do we love? Cocktails. And where do we love them? Be At One. The bar will be throwing a Halloween bash complete with Mexican martinis and fancy dress, the best part? Entry is free and there's even free cocktails for a few lucky early birds.
Zebrano in Soho is having a Stranger Things/ Michael Jackson/ Ghost Busters themed Halloween bash as they get out the 80s tunes and big costumes. There will be a happy hour until midnight, an 80s aesthetic and some seriously good dance tunes.
The team at NewLondon serve up a spooky treat for London's party mad crowds this Halloween. Taking over the London Fields Brewery in North London, guests are invited to wonder through their eerie tunnels, filled with the ghosts of dead stars. With a distinct 'Open the Casket' theme, guests are encouraged to dress i their scariest attire and dance long into the night to the best electro and techo tunes. Proving that you don't have to break the bank to have a great halloween, tickets are on sale from a little as £5.
We've really only got a handful of early-bird tickets left for Cargo's Halloween Friday night special! Get them quick if you want in; they're only £10 if you're there before 11pm. Expect the creatures of Cargo to descend on their famous dance floor for all your favourite tunes until 6am.
Bone chilling and spine tingling by definition, the Halloween Freak Show at Farringdon's Bounce will leave your jaw hanging on the ground. With late night ping pong, UV face painting, gruesome games of face painting and DJ Shredded Pete playing creepy tracks all night, pull on your scariest outfit and head down.
For just a £5 advanced ticket, you'll enjoy ghostly games, themed cocktails, Halloween trivia and a party-hearty atmosphere until 3am at this rowdy Halloween bash at Zebrano Soho. This night marks the first of four for London's spookiest (and most raucous) weekend at Zebrano Soho.
Brunch Vibes are hosting a hair-raising Halloween Brunch celebration, and you can get involved from just £15! It's taking place in the depths of the Haunted Vaults beneath Putney Pies, with freak show performers, devilish DJ line-ups and canapes coming your way in an all-day spooktacular. As if you weren't swayed already, there's complimentary cocktails to take full advantage of between 12 and 1pm.
Halloween doesn't have to be terrifying, it can be outrageous, hilarious and a whole lot of fun as The Four Femmes prove with their performance. Join them for their Halloween party as they tell stories and sing songs from throughout the century.
Snap up your Early Bird tickets to Barrio's Halloween bash - they're an absolute steal at £5. A Day of the Dead cocktail and queue jump is included in the ticket price, with each of the group's venues bringing you a tequila-fuelled night of Aztec revelry. Feast on tacos, touch-up your make-up from their facepainters and generally go big on the dance-floor with smoky mezcal and other exotic cocktails at this cheap - and ridiculously fun - Halloween night out.
Offering London's thrill seekers yet another affordable way to spend Halloween this year, the team at the Toy Shop in London plate up an event framed by eerie figure, haunting sights and all the club fun you can handle. With its UV cannons loaded and ready to fire, tickets priced at an irresistible £10 and some of London's biggest up-and-coming DJs on the decks, you definitely won't forget this Halloween event in London anytime soon.
The most popular bingo night returns this October for a very special Halloween night in London. Musical Bingo takes over the Concrete in Shoreditch and offers the city's eager crowds a night of creepy characters, bone-chilling surprises and haunting rounds. Testing out your musical knowledge with their wonderful amalgamation of bingo and popular songs, this spooky Halloween extravaganza costs a reasonable £12 per ticket.
When Ultimate Power hosts a party on a Saturday instead of their usual Friday, s***'s about to go down. Famous throughout the country for their playlist of nothing but absolutely banging power ballads, join them for this spooktacular special where the usual floor-fillers will come mixed in with plenty of Halloween surprises. This event will sell out so don't hang about...
Dirty Retro are making their spooky debut at the Magic Roundabout at what is one of the best free Halloween events in London this year. Held from this unique spot on top of Old Street roundabout, get along early in the afternoon where you'll find them dropping a unique blend of distorted disco, house and retro jams. Get your area booked in early; there's also going to be face-painting, face morph photo booths and lots of blood punch and creepy cocktails flowing at the bar.
Pop Brixton is turning themselves into a star-studded cemetery for Halloween, resurrecting their favourite celebrities through fancy dress and music. Discover the ghost of performers past, sample the street food and all this is starts from £3 per ticket.
Trapeze are putting on a night featuring wild circus acts, fortune-telling, a make-up stand and some seriously special drinks at the bar. It's time to don your most extravagant, outlandish costume - you'll need to go big if you want to win a bottle of bubbly in the fancy dress costume - and your £5 ticket includes a special bloody entry upon arrival.
Yep - that's right, one pound cinema club. Forget shelling all your hard-earned pennies on Halloween this year, just make your way to The Grand for a movie night featuring Scary Movie on one of the biggest screens in London. There's unlimited popcorn for a quid, creepy cocktails, hot dogs and dance off competitions - and free entry to the Grand's Halloween Ball is included in your ticket price.
With a zombie apocalypse consuming much of the city, Bounce in Shoreditch invite guests to their humble shelter for an evening of huge tunes, frightful sites and all the ping pong fun you can handle. Whether you avoiding the many zombie characters that'll be lurking in dark corners, reinventing yourself at their UV face painting station or dancing your troubles away to the sounds of DJ Jules Critchley, you won't forget this Halloween night out in London anytime soon.
The Top Secret Comedy Club love Halloween so much, they couldn't resist hosting two comedy night sessions on Saturday 29th. Promising an amazing atmosphere and sets from some of the top names on the circuit right now, tickets are an absolute snip at £7 / £12 (early / late show) and there's plenty of cheap drinks flowing at the bar. Forget the fancy dress club nights this year and enjoy an evening of rib-tickling, side-splitting jokes instead - you know it makes sense.
Head to Cargo in Shoreditch this Halloween as the club goes all out for a Saturday night of tantalising, teasing and terrorising. There will be burlesque dancers, fire-breathers and a whole host of amazing DJs to help you party into the early hours.
Get ready for one hell of a party as Shane's on Canalside go all out with day and night activities. During the day, there will be pumpkin carving, face-painting and steaks and then as the sun sets, the DJs get serious to have you partying until the early hours. Get creative with your fancy dress for your chance to win free drinks all night.
Fancy world-class DJs, a night of performers and amazing music all hosted by one of the biggest names in dance music for £10? Then get yourself to McQueen, the awrd-winning Shoreditch club, this Halloween where Hed Kandi will be taking over for one night of debauched goings on.
Combining incredible streetfood with all the zombie-based fun you can handle, the Last Days of Shoreditch just keeps giving to East London's crowds, hosting a brilliant Halloween celebration this October. Alongside all the delicious streetfood dishes on offer, the entire party will be framed by terrifying costumes and unbelievable DJ sets by the likes of Belle and Bex, Clint Lee and Shane Watcha.
Where better to mark Halloween this year than at The Ten Bells - a legendary and historic boozer with all kinds of spooky history to its name in the heart of Spitalfields? This year's party will feature the usual epic selection of gin and Thames water cocktails, with free face painting, free chips and, best of all, free entry 'til the wee hours.
When it comes to fancy dress at This & That, anything goes (within reason, of course). Ideal if you want to bend the spooky rules slightly, there's free booze for those with the best costumes on the night. Head along to the heart of Camden where DJ Rugrat and friends will drop a seriously warped playlist of hellish hip-hop, gruesome garage and haunted house tracks.
No prizes for guessing how you're encouraged to dress up at the Dead Famous Halloween special! Come in costume and you'll get free entry (there's a £5 charge going to Neuroblastoma if not) and don't hold back; there's a bottle of spirit on offer for the best dressed male and female on the night. Expect DJs, pizzas, burger, punch, face-painting and themed cocktails galore at this NW blowout!

Thanks again for the 🍁
The Spot is hands down my favorite. They are reliable and I'm always pleased with their flower.
I requested a delivery from the Spot
The staff is nice and friendly but not really reliable. It's was Friday night when I ordered so understand High time for delivery but I was a first timer and got a care package but with no Flower joints inside like the description on there page.
I Would give them a second chance
I ordered here for the first time last week and it was the best experience I've ever had picking up. The guy on the phone was very helpful with getting me signed up and making sure my first time patient deal was hooked up and delivered very fast! Money well spent found my new go-to spot.
Wanted to try this new spot for delivery so I text my deets. Upon return text I am told the wait would be 90min. Over 2hrs later I text for an eta to see where the driver is and I'm told another 50+ minutes. Looks like great deals and some quality bud, but the wait wasn't worth it. Canceled my order. May try again when they first open to see if that makes a difference
as long as you are willing to drop a bit of cash, this place will get you there. I highly reccomend buying quantities bigger than 1/8 because you can save yourself some money
Best first time patient experience! I got bob Marley and it hits fire. They also hooked it up with a gram of beautiful sativa that made my night! I will only be using their services from now on. Quality kush, fast delivery and great prices...this is the spot.

Ordered from here once and I can't stop. The service is speedy and on point. You order, wait, receive they are quick. Keep up the great work!
5 stars!
Fantastic weed at great prices, lets not forget they are open until 3 AM for late nighters. As a first time patient they lowered the price cap so i could pick up. They also threw in another gram #homies. Great dispensary.
