Other recent (real! verbatim!) headlines from The Economist:

“Your pay is still going up too fast”

“Why you should never retire”

I tend to take their pronouncements with a massive grain of salt and a massiver eye roll.



The former is an accurate reflection of central bank policies in many countries - raise interest rates to keep pay rises (aka wage inflation) down.


Quite likely, but I have never, not once, found myself thinking "thank heavens we're not getting raises anymore".


True. The aims of central banks very often reflect those of the business paying you than yours.

My point is that the headline quoted is not a bad summary of an influential point of view.


Those are both satire pieces.
