1/12 🧵 THREAD — THE HUMAN-CAPITAL CALCULUS OF VIOLENT CRIME by United States Standards.

When economists talk about human capital, they aren’t dehumanizing people — they’re describing the productive capacity of a Nation.
Each citizen is an asset with:

🧬 skills
📚 knowledge
💼 lifetime earnings
🏛 civic participation
🔧 problem-solving capacity
👨‍👩‍👧 generational impact

A homicide doesn’t just end a life — it eliminates a unit of national productive power.

pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11… 2/12 Human-capital theory (Becker, Schultz, Mincer) shows that high-value individuals accumulate:

📈 education
📉 low-risk behavior
🔁 consistent labor participation
🧠 tacit knowledge

When such a person is murdered, the government loses the equivalent of a senior engineer, teacher, operator, or specialist.

This is brain drain by homicide.
