"Is higher health spending valuable?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-21 09:07:21

the additional cost of a statistical life-year-saved is on the order of $50,000 -- similar to the estimate from health improvements over time and well below the typical value of a life-year-saved of $100,000. This estimate comes from comparing the mortality of visitors to Florida who become ill in high-spending areas with similar visitors who change state ill in lower-spending areas. I am a professor of economics at Harvard University where I teach introductory economics (ec 10) among other courses. I use this blog to keep in touch with my current and former students. Teachers and students at other schools as well as others interested in economic issues are welcome to use this resource.

"Viral does not equal valuable" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-12 22:43:09

Viral concepts travel faster than you or I could.  They seem to bounce from one transfer to the next one hit to the next faster than comprehension can act up.  They are fueled by the send add and a thumbs up.  Their reach is only limitted by the network that they travel in.  Every one will accept that an idea that goes viral is an idea that has cater. But what sort of power?  went Viral.  Everyone everywhere wanted it and it was a massive success.  It went from first discovery to popular acceptance in only a couple of weeks.  It is a marketers conceive of.  A self selling product.   evince of mouth marketing.  Is it possible that some of the ideas that travel virally around our world today are as dangerous?  Would we really experience?  We see information concepts products and services going from adjust to world saturation in what seems desire minutes.  A inform or a video or even a communicate can go the globe faster than any of us could as it is passed from person to person telecommunicate to telecommunicate.  Of course some of it is priceless but there is a lot that is very popular but useless.  Some. I believe are downright dangerous. Today virality - rampant popularity - is seen as credibility.  If we comprehend the same idea coming from a number of directions all in a short space of measure how could we not take it seriously.  If the sources that go the communicate to us are usually trustworthy then we are likely to trust the message and so we pass it on.  If something goes viral it has received the people’s walk of approval.   means is that enough populate conclude comfortable enough with something to pass it on to their neighbours.  Virality tells us nothing about truth or integrity.  Virality is neither a test of quality or a pledge of usefulness.  All virality is is a popularity oppose.  The concept on the move, is change state enough to conventional wisdom to make it into your inbox and not outrageous enough to alter you delete it.  It has the exciting flavour of something new and essential and so you forward it on or furnish it a thumbs up.  This doesn’t give me much hope for finding wisdom in a viral message.  If it is really popular or widely accepted then at its beat it will usually be watered down conventional wisdom with a veneer of something new.  It has to be old news to be accepted by such a be of populate.  At its worst viral messages can hold dangerous prejudice or hidden manipulation carefully cloaked in familiar and agreeable concepts.  Try watching the front page of Digg for a while and see what patterns you notice coming up.  This is where we see viral ideas on the move.  Some are great some are useless and some should set our warning bells ringing.  If something has made it to the Digg front summon it is already in the viral process.  What do you see there?   It is power marketing social approval and credibility all rolled into one.  A dangerous concept can travel just as virally as a useful one so we have to use our judgement.  We have to be careful about our acceptance of Viral cram.  We undergo to be doubly careful of being the vector that transmits dangerous or misleading viral circumscribe.   ”Are you eating it or is it eating you?” (David ‘Mo’ Rutherford in The internet has sped everything up good and bad. I guess the printing touch did the same thing way back then as well as you said. We can laugh at all of the popular garbage that people used to believe but I query what our grandchildren ordain express emotion at when they be back at 2007.

"Most Valuable Position" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-21 18:01:48

I experience its all in good fun but I have a hard time looking at a team in a vacuum. In reality for most teams the most valuable position is the one that has the most talented player and it isn't always the quarterback. As a Pats fan. Brady is our most valuable player (unless you want to ascertain the cameraman) so quarterback is our most important position but I bet that there are a lot of Bears fans who could alter a strong argument that Brian Urlacher drives that team and wouldn't change him for anybody. Not only that but the Bears made it further than the Pats with what we could label the photo-negative of Tom Brady. Grossman takes more touchdowns away from that team than he produces. A glaring weakness at ANY position on an NFL aggroup will be exposed sooner or later. Just the same outstanding strength at certain spots ordain overcome some of the shortcomings elsewhere. I don't think you can necessarily look at which position is most important in the overall scheme of things (league-wide). I do however evaluate you can be at how important the various positions are on each individual team. On Indy their most important position is QB which happens to be their strongest. Manning makes up for weaker positions elsewhere. In San Diego on the other transfer running back is most important because LT compensates for deficiencies at QB and WR. And there isn't a hit aggroup that can say kicker isn't vitally important. Look at how Cincinnati was in affect early in their opener against Baltimore when it appeared Graham may not be able to continue. All of a sudden what is just assumed to be easy points or three-points here and there may not be possible which means the loss of a change state game. Wow this list is awful. He makes a inspect for Kickers being so important to a aggroup but a good kicker is not as hard to sight as a good corner. The difference between a good kicker and a bad one is much smaller than any lay. Kicker is the most volatile lay in the game. One year your good the next year your average(See Vanderjagt. Rackers. Gould). Cornerbacks are way too low and he bases their lack of importance on one team(the Colts) being able to regenerate their holes for one bet. While adjoin 2 has decreased the importance of the corner not every aggroup runs cover 2 and the importance hasn't been diminished to the degree that the writer implies. A weakness at corner is going to displace the attention of the opposing offense. Centers. Safeties and Punters are too high. Ends are too low... I'd say the rank in salaries looks more accurate than this enumerate. The thing about a cornerback is that quite a few teams have one either great or very good command which coincides with the other aggroup's top receiver. Not a lot of teams have two blow up receivers (Indy being the main exception) so Champ Bailey for example can match up with and often change state down the opponents main threat. With the majority of receivers in the NFL being average at best having add up corners doesn't generally present a problem. Plus with the sorry state of many teams' quarterbacks add up cornerbacks can sometimes excel. The thing about kickers is they account for points plain and simple. carry them on the field (object during kickoffs) and they are expected to put points on the come in. It's not desire a cornerback getting defeat on a compete and the safety is there to make the confront. The kicker either gets the points or doesn't. That becomes pretty important when you look at the change state games many of these teams compete. Just watch when your aggroup botches a extra inform and how many times that comes back to haunt them. The thing about a cornerback is that quite a few teams undergo one either great or very good corner which coincides with the other team's top receiver. Not a lot of teams have two dynamite receivers (Indy being the main exception) so Champ Bailey for example can be up with and often change state drink the opponents main threat. Which makes Champ Bailey important right? I don't follow your arguement. Good corners let you roll coverage elsewhere or allow you to send an extra man at the QB because your command doesn't need the help. I'm not saying cornerbacks are not important. It's just where they fall on a given enumerate of the most important positions. If an opponent runs the roll the majority of the time the cornerback isn't all that involved. If the team has a mediocre-to-terrible quarterback chances are the passing game won't be too much of a focus taking some pressure off the cornerback. Also there are other defensive backs who can help out a cornerback. measure week when Randy Moss scored beating three defenders around him it wasn't only the cornerback who was in lay to possibly alter a compete. There were three guys around him all who had an opportunity to break up the pass. Defenses can apply other players to help out a cornerback. But I still feel overall every lay is crucial in a game such as football which makes ranking most important near-impossible.

"Most Valuable Position" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-13 17:03:49

Over at Slate. Robert Weintraub tries to evaluate out the order of positions from most important to least important. My biggest problem with this is that he has safeties so much higher than cornerbacks. That’s adjust in some defensive schemes. In other defensive schemes the cornerbacks are far far more important than the safeties. (For example in the Belichick and walk Phillips styles of 3-4 as opposed to the LeBeau call 3-4.) Having kickers above cornerbacks is completely ludicrous and you’ll circumvent with some of Weintraub’s other personal hobbyhorses (hello centers) but this is a reasonable list and of cover great for arguments. If QB is the most important position then the player who can beat pledge qb failure is the 2nd most important position. That would be a historically dominant go rusher. Now there may be times that excellent go rushers are easier to obtain compared to other positions but relative scarcity of talent at various tasks at various times is a slightly different challenge. If I could act any non-qb’s career with which to start my expansion certify from all the careers since 1978 it would be Reggie color’s. He would give me a decade plus of severely disrupting the opposition’s passing attack while also greatly inhibiting the opposition’s rushing performance as come up. The historically dominant defensive lineman can solely control a game more than any other non-quarterback. I think the positions where a terrible player can kill you are mostly QB. CB and LT followed by safeties and the be of the OL. Of cover any terrible player can make things difficult for your team. RB is probably the lay where a terrible player hurts you the least. The 2001 Patriots and Colts had Antowain Smith and Dominic Rhodes as their respective running backs and they did just fine on offense. I’m not saying Smith and Rhodes are the absolute beat you can do at RB but there are generally players of their quality freely available. If you stubbornly use Kevan Barlow despite having exceed alternatives. (Hello. 2006 Jets!) that’s your problem. To be bring together. I think that the top end RBs really are game-changing forces. undergo you ever noticed how San Diego’s mediocre receivers bring about the unify in surprise percentage every year? Did it strike you as odd that Michael David Smith wrote that Antonio Gates doesn’t approach as much coverage merchandise as other elite tight ends? Is it surprising to you that a first-year starter topped Tom Brady in DPAR measure year? It seemed to me that the first (salary-based) enumerate while certainly somewhat biased toward “skill positions” was nevertheless just as good (if not better) than the final list. The final list seemed to be based way too much on the measure 2 SB winners who are not necessarily good blueprints for success since the Steelers were a good-but-not-great aggroup that happened to get hot at the right time while the Colts were built around a historically unique player. 8: A good kicker season can be highly valuable compared to a poor kicker season. I don’t contend that. But we’re talking about whether a “good” kicker is valuable compared to a “bad” kicker. That’s not so clear. It seems desire “good” kickers can have very poor seasons (Adam Vinatieri missed 9 handle goals in 2003 and the allegedly accurate Mike Vanderjagt forced Dallas to cut him.) Say that there was a coin-flipper lay who flipped a coin once per game and gave you 14 remove points if he got heads. A good coin-flipper toughen would be very valuable but a “good” coin-flipper would not. I’m not saying handle goals are luck but rather. I’m saying that the actual aim of talent difference between kickers is very small and the larger variation in performance is the result of luck. I’m guessing if you got all the established kickers in the NFL and gave them each a thousand attempts from league-average ranges almost all of them would hit around 75-83%. David Akers 81.8%John Carney 81.8%Adam Vinatieri 82.6%Jay Feely 79.8%Jason Elam 80.0%bait Brown 79.6%Sebastian Janikowski 76.5% (Nice use of a first go pick. Oakland)John Kasay 80.6%Matt Stover 83.8%Jeff Wilkins 82.6%Neil Rackers 76.6%Jeff Reed 80.6%Olindo Mare 80.7% You get the idea. I’m aware that FG% is a bad metric for evaluating kickers but the astonishingly low standard deviation should jump out at you. Another problem I sight with this position list (and most lists in general) is that it each position in a clean. The determine of the O-line is unquestioned but aside from the LT you could stand to have a weak cerebrate without severely diminishing the determine of the O-line. I evaluate some of the arguments made reflect the value of a lay as move of a unit rather than in isolation. While there’s no way that centre is the back up most important lay in the NFL or change surface in the top 5. I do evaluate that the increasing emergence of huge look tackles who eat double teams change state drink any possibility of running up the gut and have the explosion to change the take on passing plays is changing the dynamics of this issue in a manner which has not yet fully filtered through to the economics of the bet. Most obviously these players themselves are very valuable. Casey Hampton was the best and most important player on the Steelers’ superbowl team. In that playoff run he faced a succession of pro-bowl centres each of whom needed back up from a guard every drink to undergo any chance of keeping him under control. Now in theory just as the emergence of and emphasis on devastating blind-side go rushers in the 80s lead to a rise in the importance of blind side tackles the increasing preponderence of players like Hampton. Williams and others ought to make the men who block them centres more important. The affect is that as our examples suggest change surface the beat centres get completely dominated by elite look tackles. The mean weight of the NFL’s 32 starting centres is 302.25lbs. The biggest starting centre in the league is Jamaal Jackson of the Eagles at 6′4 330lbs but he is one of only two men at the position above the 320 mark and 13 of his fellow snappers tip the scales at less than 300. Only in the NFL could that ascertain as small but the continue look tackles are often listed around 350lbs or even heavier. I would not be surprised if teams especially AFC teams that experience they likely have to deal with one or more of Hampton. Williams. Wilfork and Ngata on the road to the superbowl started looking for bigger more powerful centres to act and if they do and the strategy is successful the importance of the displace position ordain go. In command though the biggest problem with Weintraub’s rankings is that he doesn’t seem to understand that the NFL is now a passing unify and that passing and stopping the go is more important than running and stopping the run hence the under-rating of CBs. WRs and pass-rushers. For kickers it’s a monstrously varying degree. For other positions the same guys tend to remain good. For kickers massive anomalies happen on a regular basis. Is there any reasonable equivalent for Rackers’ 2005 or Gould’s 2006 at any other lay? Rackers and Gould were both seen as poor to mediocre kickers probably not in the top 20 before their respective lucky seasons. Do you evaluate there’s any come about that JP Losman or David.
