Is there any way of solving the positive externality problem without government intervention? It's one of those few things in economics where I think the only way for it to be solved is through taxation or subsidies.
Getting a distinction on an assignment because this guy's a legend: Priceless.
Your externalities videos taught me more in 16 minutes than my lecturer could have in 2 hours.. Much appreciated, your videos are fantastic, keep up the great work!!
I have just started my AS course and unfortunately I have 2 very poor teachers for Economics. You have just become my 3rd (and by far the best) teacher. I have just recommended you to the rest of my class and all we have to say is your videos are nothing short of brilliant. Many many thanks!
Hey there! Just wanted to thank you for the amazing, as other people expressed, life-saving videos! I'm currently in finishing the 1st year of the IB Diploma programme, and my final in Economics HL is tomorrow. I've gotta say that these videos really boosts one's understanding when it comes to revision: THANK YOU!
Usually when something like this comes up in a textbook my mind won't let me learn it but the way you explain it...I don't go away thinking choosing economics was the worst choice I've ever made :)
I was, however, just wondering why the MPC/MSC line doesn't depict the 'U' shape at the beginning. My textbook suggests the law of diminishing returns would create this shape. In my exam would I loose/gain marks on my diagrams for including this?
You are the best explainer Ive ever seen in 2 years of University... you were really born to teach and explain. Ur communication skills are excellent and the flow of your ideas is EVEN BETTER, which is the key to teach economics in an "efficient way". thank you very much for the positive externality that you are providing to the society, and by which we all are better off!!
You should really gather a class from California, or the united states itself to travel to Italy and be instructed by you. i would pay if you offered an economics course for college credit.
I'm sure you know by now, but these videos are an invaluable resource for students , like myself, who studying economics. Your explanations are easy to understand, without sacrificing content. Thank you for all your help!
@jagrit94 Hey man! I'm studying IB Economics as well! Apart from this guy do you have any other awesome sources? :D Would love to yknow chat to a fellow IBer ;)

resitting my AS Markets in Action paperafter an unexpected poor grade. Wish i had been told abut these videos before then. They are really helping me with understading. Just out of interest are you videos course specific? just that I am doing OCR economics and wouldn't want to start writting about stuff that i'm not supposed to know. Thanks!
You have NO idea how much this has helped me understand positive externalities... I've been trying to get a handle on this for about a week- and now I get it!
seriously paj you should be considered for the Noble price. I thought my teacher about you and all we do in lessons is watch your videos you're a star or as we call you in our class PPE (Paj the positive externality)
Im an AS student studying Economics, I really enjoy watching your videos I think they are very helpful and useful, I understand more from your videos than in class.
I would like to know if you have one which is about price Mechanism I am quite confused with this topic and if not then I think you should make one for all the people that needs it and has difficulties with it.
I'm a grad student (MBA) and I must say - many of your videos have been so helpful - many times better explained than the explanation that I got from lecture. I sincerely thank you.
What this does not take into account is that the subsidizing of this one product or service will change the optimal private and social levels of all other services and products by the financing causing additional tax or inflation.
I WISH you were my economics teacher,maybe i would'nt hate the subject soo much anyway thanks for all the videos, I might atleast pass my exam tomorow maybe. anyway THANKYOU times a million from Sydney Australia
Dear Sir, I am from Malaysia, but currently in Germany doing my Health Economics Master degree. I really love all your videos!! I really need some explanation on Open Access Resources (like road congestion). How to fix them, by providing the toll or even constructing a new road to prevent road congestion. How to start with this?? Thanks!
Subsidies by the governement are problematic because it necessarily makes the economy inefficient.
You mentioned the health care and education as examples here so let me take them to further consideration as well.
When education is subsidiced it creates unemployed Masters/Doctors because of lack of work in their special fields (for example, subjects like the Asian folkloristics).
without you i would've had no chance of doing well in my micro exam as i had never previously studied economics before uni. now i feel like i might actually have a chance! thankyou soooooooo much :)
Hello sir. Its been a great help to me to study economics with so much ease. I really want to thank you wholeheartedly. Lots of prayers for you from Pakistan.

hi. Im an AS level student studying economics. Your video was very helpful however i'm curious. I have been taught a different method. Instead this diagram uses A MPC=MSC curve upward sloping and then the MSB and MPB intersecting and the underproduction is shown by a similiar Quantity. I just want to make sure when it comes to it. You can illustrate an increase in production of these goods as easy.

The example of paying higher taxes as social benefits only works if there is a progressive tax. I would say that getting an education contributes in increasing the total output of an economy as there are improved factors of production (labour). But great videos. The accelerator was really helpful as the textbook versions were a little bit complicated
Thank you thank you thank you - my exam is tomorrow and this has really helped me thank you - keep up the awesome work - your work is bringing positive externality to my life thanks
I hope you actually reply, or at least someone will...
I draw the diagrams using the demand and supply curves; showing two supply curves to illustrate how there's under-production of positive externalities.
Am I doing it wrong, is it NECESSARY that the curves be MSCand MSB?
Honestly, you should never stop making these videos until you've covered every aspect in the entirety of economics. You explain these concepts far better than the professionals who get my tuition money!
This sounds like an argument for socialism to me, and I don't think that society benefits from having a load of costs forced upon them at gunpoint by the state.
Whenever the state has tried to implement their version of positive externalities it leads to corruption and sometimes collapse. The negative consequences of this vastly outwiegh any potential benefits.
Hi, I found that very useful, but I didnt quie understand why the MPB and MSB was downwards sloping? Other than that I found it really useful thank you!
"its what we get if we leave things to market forces" - googles new revolutionary translating app gives you "the small we get relief in somalia forces".... haha :D
The crux here is at 3:07 -- "Let's assume that there are no external costs." ====
If there are external costs -- e.g. opportunity costs b/c people & companies don't have the wealth taken from them by gov't to pay for the extra "social benefits" -- then you'd have to count that into your calculations before claiming that "the market failed." ====
Also, will the gov't use the wealth as efficiently? Might there be a relative loss of wealth to the country by channeling it through gov't?
OMG I ACTUALLY GET THIS NOW. i've been starin at my textbook for like 20 mins tryin to figure out what it's tryin to say. but yeah thanks a lot :D:D:D
Brilliant, Mr. Holden! Very helpful. My econs teacher knows nearly nothing, and the book's description of the graphs is a bit too vague. This will really help me for my A level prep. Thanks again!
what happens if education is over subsidized, and theres a lack of lower level workers i.e. farmers, this problem is occuring in china where they're all going to find education. does that mean it gives a negative externality? does that mean the cost of education is agricultural/labour?
Of COURSE your graph is going to support your interventionist theory. You've removed the reasoning that you yourself described early on about consumption equilibrium. The social costs of government theft and monopoly is staggering on the intensives of the private individual, let alone the reallocation of immediate costs from the third party beneficiary (leach) to the healthcare provider that gets pawned off on the consumer. #facepalm
Its a model! And just like any other economic model, it makes assumptions, but that by no means makes it wrong and it certainly doesn't make it unhelpful. What you're saying does, of course, hold some merit, but there's no need to be so critical on what is essentially a very useful aspect of economics!
I personally don't agree with your cynicism and believe instead that government intervention does indeed help reduce market failure in this respect, but that is just a matter of personal opinion.
you legend!

If there are external costs -- e.g. opportunity costs b/c people & companies don't have the wealth taken from them by gov't to pay for the extra "social benefits" -- then you'd have to count that into your calculations before claiming that "the market failed." ====
Also, will the gov't use the wealth as efficiently? Might there be a relative loss of wealth to the country by channeling it through gov't?

Brilliant, Mr. Holden! Very helpful. My econs teacher knows nearly nothing, and the book's description of the graphs is a bit too vague. This will really help me for my A level prep. Thanks again!

what happens if education is over subsidized, and theres a lack of lower level workers i.e. farmers, this problem is occuring in china where they're all going to find education. does that mean it gives a negative externality? does that mean the cost of education is agricultural/labour?

HAHAHA Assume there's no external societal COST?
Utter fail.
Of COURSE your graph is going to support your interventionist theory. You've removed the reasoning that you yourself described early on about consumption equilibrium. The social costs of government theft and monopoly is staggering on the intensives of the private individual, let alone the reallocation of immediate costs from the third party beneficiary (leach) to the healthcare provider that gets pawned off on the consumer. #facepalm

Its a model! And just like any other economic model, it makes assumptions, but that by no means makes it wrong and it certainly doesn't make it unhelpful. What you're saying does, of course, hold some merit, but there's no need to be so critical on what is essentially a very useful aspect of economics!
I personally don't agree with your cynicism and believe instead that government intervention does indeed help reduce market failure in this respect, but that is just a matter of personal opinion.

You are so god damn wrong it's unreal. The level of how wrong you are is not even to do with economics. You have failed on metaphysics and ethics.
