Laws shaping growth
Ostwaldreich's laws don't just shift opinion — some of them speed up or slow down particular industries every month. Only laws currently set away from a neutral position appear here; every other law leaves growth alone.

Figures are annual percentage points added to (or taken off) that industry's growth rate for as long as the law stands — they stack with the global rate for the industry shown above. Greyed-out industries aren't part of Ostwaldreich's economy, so those impacts do nothing here until the sector exists. Change the law and the effect changes with it — see Ostwaldreich's laws.
Global events shaping growth
World events resolved by global decision can temporarily speed up or slow down particular industries — a solar storm battering technology, a subsidy boosting a sector. Only effects currently in force appear here; each fades on its own end date.

Figures are annual percentage points added to (or taken off) that industry's growth rate while the effect lasts — they stack with the global rate and any standing laws above. Greyed-out industries aren't part of Ostwaldreich's economy, so those effects do nothing here until the sector exists. Hover an industry to see when the effect ends.
