By Dhawal Shah

Dhawal Shah, Founder of Class Central

If you haven’t heard, universities around the world are offering their courses online for free (or at least partially free). These courses are collectively called MOOCs or Massive Open Online Courses.

In the past six years or so, over 800 universities have created more than 10,000 of these MOOCs. And I’ve been keeping track of these MOOCs the entire time over at Class Central, ever since they rose to prominence.

 

In the past four months alone, 190 universities have announced 600 such free online courses. I’ve compiled a list of them and categorized them according to the following subjects: Computer Science, Mathematics, Programming, Data Science, Humanities, Social Sciences, Education & Teaching, Health & Medicine, Business, Personal Development, Engineering, Art & Design, and finally Science.

If you have trouble figuring out how to signup for Coursera courses for free, don’t worry — here’s an article on how to do that, too.

Many of these are completely self-paced, so you can start taking them at your convenience.

5 Myths about Income Inequality Debunked

5 Myths about Income Inequality Debunked

It’s important to have a healthy skeptic’s attitude.

The issue of economic inequality is all the rage these days. It encompasses numerous arguments about a wide range of topics. Let us review and rebut several common ones.

At first glance, this claim may seem to be supported by a graph like this one, taken from the Federal Reserve FRED data source.

The peak reached in 1999 wasn’t surpassed until 2016. This would seem to indicate significant stagnation of incomes.

The problem is that this is household data, which doesn’t control for the number of people per household. The scientific method has taught us that we need to hold independent variables constant, if possible, to do more accurate and convincing research. So, instead, we should use per capita data, which means one person and always means one person.

What exactly does the inflation-adjusted per capita data on various measures of standard of living say?

Real gross domestic product per capitareal disposable personal income per capitareal personal consumption expenditures per capitaand real total compensation per hour all point to a drastic and sustained improvement in the standard of living over time in the US, business cycles notwithstanding. This government data provides a strong counter-argument to the idea that the typical person in the US hasn’t gained ground in living standards since the 70s or 80s.

The argument falls apart when you consider two things: income mobility and the fact that all households saw increases over time.

This isn’t so much an outright fallacy as it has to do with incomplete knowledge and misunderstanding of statistics. The argument falls apart when you consider two things: income mobility and the fact that all households saw increases over time.

The data comes from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics at the University of Michigan. This longitudinal study started in 1968 and has been ongoing ever since.

The reason this data is important is that it follows people over time instead of statistical bins. This is maybe, at first, a subtle point, but it is crucial. Many arguments involving inequality follow statistical bins over time instead of people over time who move through the bins. I might not be as concerned about the bin of the bottom 20 percent between 1970 and 2018 if the people who made up the bottom quintile in 1970 have moved into other higher bins by 2018.

Data showing all households gaining. Table 2 page 8

Data showing 84 percent of Americans exceed their parent’s family income Figure 1 page 4

You may have seen this argument made by the Economic Policy Institute.The first chart (below) shows a disconnect between productivity and pay starting around the year 1973 and continuing into the present day.

There are two basic problems with this chart.

The first problem is that it only considers wages. When all compensation is considered, which includes wages and non-wage benefits like health insurance, maternity leave, and life insurance among others, total compensation more closely tracks productivity.

The second problem is that this chart arguably uses an inappropriate measure of inflation, the CPI, which shows a very small increase in wages. The CPI is a measure of inflation more suited to the consumer market. Labor is a factor of production and, thus, a measure of inflation in the factors market is more appropriate, like the Implicit Price Deflator. Chart 6 (below) gives a comparison of the relevant measures of inflation and taking into account total compensation.

Once you take these factors into account, compensation has tracked the increase in productivity to the tune of 77 percent, a far cry from the 7 percent decline that the CPI shows for only wages.

This is akin to wanting to know about the typical university student but only taking a survey at Harvard, a very non-typical school.

The problem with this line of argumentation is that this data is taken from a non-representative sample of CEOs, usually Fortune 100 companies. This is akin to wanting to know about the typical university student but only taking a survey at Harvard, a very non-typical school. Instead, when we take a truly representative survey of CEOs, we find that they make a median of $183,000 a year, about 4-7 times the typical worker.

Statistical analysis of this subject might, at first glance, lead to exactly the conclusion that discrimination is the primary culprit in income disparities between minorities and gender. There are two problems with this.

First, it relies on faulty statistical interpretation. When scholars do a regression analysis—a statistical method where outputs like income can be predicted by independent variables—there is often a residual disparity leftover. This leftover unexplained disparity is taken as proof of discrimination. In reality, this unexplained disparity is the upper limit of all other unaccounted for variables plus discrimination, if any. To automatically assume the remaining disparity is discrimination is a miscarriage of statistical interpretations of regression analyses.

Second, when we talk about a theory in science, we may have several competing theories trying to explain the same phenomenon. The best theories are often the ones that explain the most-observed phenomenon accurately, that make predictions, and that can be tested and verified repeatedly. The theory discrimination in income disparities suffers from not being able to explain as many observed phenomena. It cannot make accurate predictions, and most importantly, it cannot be measured, tested, and verified. It is thus a theory that needs to be discarded when a superior one exists.

Human capital, according to economists, is the stock of knowledge, habits, and social and personal attributes, including creativity, embodied in the ability to perform labor to produce economic value.

The superior theory is that income is a function of human capital. Human capital, according to economists, is the stock of knowledge, habits, and social and personal attributes, including creativity, embodied in the ability to perform labor to produce economic value. The theory is well established in its framework and has evidence to back it up.

Although we covered only five topics, my purpose was to scratch the surface of inequality arguments and show the common logical breakdowns, fallacies, and statistical misinterpretations that abound in common media about this issue. Inequality arguments suffer from many of the same problems discussed here. My hope is that I have instilled an instinct to have a healthy skeptic’s attitude.

Tree Fresno Throws Shade. But in a Very Good Way.
gvwire December 16, 2018
What’s better than sitting underneath the shade of a tree on a hot Fresno day?

Not much!

“A life without green space is a life that is not going to be satisfying.” — Lee Ayres, Tree Fresno CEO
Tree Fresno’s mission is planting and maintaining trees in and around the city.

“A life without green space is a life that is not going to be satisfying. It isn’t going to be healthy. We know people do better in open space and under trees,” says Tree Fresno CEO Lee Ayres.

Over 44,000 Trees Planted
The group’s mission is to transform the Central Valley with trees, greenways, and “beautiful landscapes” as Ayres describes.

“We’re losing thousands of trees in our parks and our cities that haven’t been replaced — a lot of it because of the drought; then some of it because we simply didn’t provide the care that they needed,” Ayres says.

By Ayres’ estimation, Tree Fresno has planted more than 44,000 trees in the organization’s 33 years.

Big Goals Still to Come
The Tree Fresno website states that the group wants to “teach the art of living green to every citizen.”

It also has more tangible tasks: Improve the landscapes at Fresno State, develop the Valley Arboretum, build a Veterans’ Grove, and of course, overall tree planting.

Watch the 12 Days of Giving video above by GV Wire’s Jahz Tello to see the contributions Tree Fresno is making to create a healthier community.
