As the Christian world celebrates the birth of Jesus, please take a moment to experience how the gospel is relevant to our lives today. Not for religious reasons, it is the personal affair of each reader. On the contrary, the economics of the Nativity of Jesus provides important lessons for our current challenges.

After all, the census two thousand years ago forced a carpenter from Nazareth to walk home with a pregnant wife. This must be counted as one of the largest policy-induced labor market disruptions in history — undoubtedly more than the United Kingdom Brexit is worse, although Maybe shorter duration At least.

As workers are scattered around the holy sites, like containers stranded off Felixstowe or Long Beach, there will be signs The dilemma of the hotel industry, also. No rooms in the inn? In fact, if a staff member prepares the room, the room may have been found. However, when census officials force them to go home when the peak season is approaching, qualified workers are unlikely to show up. At least it benefits the eco-tourism sharing economy and those with stability and mangers benefiting the Jewish version of Airbnb.

In the midst of this year’s delays and chaos, anyone struggling to purchase all Christmas gifts for children should think about the baby Christ, whose gift—we have its authority—was 12 days late.Maybe the Magi was delayed in the accumulation of caravans Close to suez.

Speaking of the 12 days of Christmas, the carol of the same name can be used as a risk analysis of the modern family holiday supply logistics challenge. It tells a two-half story. If you don’t want your Christmas to fail in any of the first seven festivals—they celebrate poultry, wild birds, and poultry-watching zoos—you should make sure to order in the summer.

Prices of less common poultry (such as geese and ducks) in the U.S. Soaring to the highest level on record. Turkey Spend more than ever, also.That’s if you can get one: British farmers have already raised 1m less bird This year is better than last year. (However, don’t worry about Section 5: Gold is always available, but at a price.)

In contrast, the last five verses point to smart households choosing to spend a Christmas with limited supply.and Food and commodities Roaring in the value chain interruption and logistics deadlock, it is better to buy the experience! Parade, acrobatics and music-what’s not to like? With hotels and restaurants in trouble due to lack of business caused by Omicron, even those who have delayed their plans to the last minute, hiring laid-off service personnel to participate in the holiday event should not be a problem.

Of course, except in many places, such celebrations are now excluded by public health restrictions. Even the British government finds it difficult to regard the presence of double-digit dancers, drummers and pipers as anything other than a party.

This may induce leaders to hesitate before adopting what appears to be a “cancel Christmas” policy. When goods do not appear and services are banned, it seems that there is nothing left for those who want to celebrate the holiday. But in fact, there is. Grasping the most mundane content of the birth of Christ, both Christians and non-Christians can cherish it equally: a family spends time together and rejoices for each other’s love and childhood happiness. The best experience does not require money to buy. For well-meaning men and women, there is no need to restrict the supply in terms of emotions.
