How does the parity pricing strategy influence employment and national wealth?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parity is the notion that farmers must be paid on par with the cost of industrial goods and farm equipment. According to economist Henry Hazlitt, parity pricing hurts consumers and decreases national wealth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we&#8217;ll take a look at how the parity pricing strategy works and why it can hurt the consumer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Parity Pricing Hurts Consumers<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Through exports and domestic sales, there is a steady demand for agricultural goods\u2014but their prices and profits are not always as stable. During the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/great-depression-and-the-new-deal\/\">Great Depression<\/a>, the price of farm goods plummeted, but the cost of industrial goods and farm equipment decreased only slightly. As a result, farmers couldn\u2019t make enough to buy industrial products, which shrunk the supply of farm goods, and limited supplies raised the cost of groceries. Meanwhile, many consumers had been laid off from their jobs and couldn\u2019t afford higher-priced groceries and other farm products.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parity pricing was enacted in order to prevent this vicious cycle from repeating in the future. Parity pricing establishes a price for farm goods that is equal to the cost of the industrial goods that a farmer must buy to produce those goods. The principle behind parity pricing is that agriculture is the most basic and necessary industry in a nation, and that its prosperity benefits everyone, thus it must be protected. <strong>The fallacy behind parity pricing is that when farmers get higher prices for their goods, they\u2019ll be able to buy more industrial goods, which will support full employment.<\/strong> However, as we\u2019ll discuss next, parity pricing raises the cost of farm goods, so that the industrial workers whose jobs are supported by the farmers\u2019 supplemented income consequently face a higher cost of living.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Consequences of Parity Pricing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The parity pricing strategy is yet another example of the government artificially altering the market. This is evident in the government\u2019s various methods for raising the prices for farm goods, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Forcing the market to buy crops at a declared price<\/li><li>Buying farm products at the parity price<\/li><li>Lending farmers money that allows them to keep their goods off the market until the price of goods reaches the parity level<\/li><li>Limiting how much farmers produce<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter the method, parity pricing has several ill effects. First, two of the methods listed above raise prices by reducing supply in order to increase demand\u2014the government mandates that farmers produce less, or the government pays the farmers to hold some goods off market to limit the supply that\u2019s available to sell. Although the farmer gets more money per bushel (or barrel, or whatever the measurement of a particular crop), <strong>a smaller supply of farm goods makes the nation poorer overall\u2014in other words, reducing national wealth.<\/strong> Additionally, although the parity pricing pads farmers\u2019 profits, it also limits their production and sales. This means that farmers sell fewer goods at a higher price, and their income does not increase.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second,<strong> the parity prices that enable farmers to <\/strong><strong><em>earn <\/em><\/strong><strong>an extra dollar per bushel of wheat also mean that bread bakers have to <\/strong><strong><em>pay<\/em><\/strong><strong> an extra dollar per bushel, and the price of bread rises proportionately.<\/strong> This has different effects for two types of supermarket shoppers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Shoppers who work in the farm-equipment industry are better able to manage the increased price of bread, because farmers\u2019 increased profits led to more farm equipment sales, thus supporting those workers\u2019 wages.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Shoppers who don\u2019t work in the farm-equipment industry suffer a net loss because their wages have been unaffected by parity pricing.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Parity Pricing Doesn\u2019t Compensate for Tariffs<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some people argue that parity pricing helps farmers to compensate for the ways they\u2019re hurt by protective tariffs. Protective tariffs decrease imports for the farm-equipment industry in order to support American-made products\u2014but, when foreign countries export less to the U.S., they also have less money to buy American farm exports.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a few problems with the suggestion that parity pricing repairs the damage done by tariffs. First, <strong>while the farmer benefits from parity pricing, consumers lose twice<\/strong> because they face higher prices for goods because of tariffs as well as for groceries because of parity pricing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second, <strong>it\u2019s impossible to protect or subsidize every industry equally.<\/strong> If one industry is protected with a tariff, then another industry that\u2019s negatively impacted needs protection by a subsidy, which creates a ripple effect of other industries that would be positively and negatively affected. There are too many overlapping consequences to put everyone on equal footing. The only solution is to abolish both tariffs and parity pricing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is parity pricing?
