We have a tax on unrealized gains already (this is just property taxes), which even the smallest county in the country manages to administer. People hate it because they would prefer to have more wealth rather than less, but that is no different than the usual anti-tax sociopathy

A special case of how European vs American approaches to privacy have downstream impacts. US worried about government abuse, so binds government data use but not private data, Europe is the opposite, binding private data (GDPR) but not public (population registries)

Has the pandemic-era surge in business entry been limited to "lifestyle" entrepreneurs and "mom n pop shops" with little growth potential, or has it featured the kinds of high tech investments that are important for innovation and productivity growth? federalreserve.gov/econres/notes/…
If you have ~$4.14 you can apparently get a gallon of milk and a dozen large eggs in Washington, DC. Which is sort of an amazing feat of modern life when you think about it. Minimum wage in the city is $17/hour.

How to say "hello" in different languages: Spanish: Hola Indonesian: Selamat siang Japanese: こんにちは CEA: OK nerds, let's talk triangle weighting.
Ok nerds, let’s talk triangle weighting. A lot of people (well, two…) have asked my why March core PCE inflation came in as expected at 0.3%, when that was the expectation *before* the GDP report came out with the higher-than-expected core rate for Q1. After all…
This is what "objective" media will fail to convey to the public: that the right's engagement on this rule (all EPA rules, really, but especially this one) has been grotesquely bad faith from the beginning. Constantly shifting objections, moving goal posts.
@john_voorheis I think so. I am not a psychologist but it was interesting just to let a random person talk...and NYers aren't none for their chattiness.
If you have ~$4.14 you can apparently get a gallon of milk and a dozen large eggs in Washington, DC. Which is sort of an amazing feat of modern life when you think about it. Minimum wage in the city is $17/hour.
Another fascinating DW-NOMINATE factoid: These canonical legislator ideology scores rely for identification on starting values that Poole and Roosenthal created in the 1980s by making videotapes of legislator positions given different fits. Still used as far as I can tell... 👀
When so many ask, “How is this economics?”, it’s nice when the QJE answers, “yes this is economics.” Economics, like early hominids, thrives by aggressively expanding its territory.
Recently accepted by #QJE, “The Ant and the Grasshopper: Seasonality and the Invention of Agriculture,” by Andrea Matranga (@andreamatranga): doi.org/10.1093/qje/qj…
It's not surprising that there is illiterate economics behind it and, obviously, the point is not to make some real difference in the conflict (you wouldn't protest at Columbia then). It's signaling
As a Columbia student, I was curious what, specifically, students are protesting. Apparently, it’s because Columbia’s endowment invests in broader market ETFs and big tech stocks. Every American with a retirement account is invested in big tech. Most of these kids’ parents are…
New paper just accepted at @ReadDemography with @ReginaSBaker & @ryanmfinnigan: “The Role of Single Motherhood in America’s High Child Poverty.” The role is small or modest. The US would have HIGH child poverty even if there was ZERO single motherhood. bradydave.wordpress.com/wp-content/upl…

I hate these people and their prejudice. I will fight them and their poisonous ideology forever. Help elect me. and I promise I will never, ever give an inch to them. Ever. Trans people are welcome in Minnesota. These bigots are not. secure.actblue.com/donate/willsta…
According to conservative luminary Chris Rufo, if you don’t hate trans people, you’re soft and weak, like a woman. To be a REAL man you need to be an insecure transphobic bigot
I love living in a country that matters and will play a decisive role in humanity's flourishing in the future, both here and across the Solar System.
Two things are true: 1/ The gap in US and western Europe GDP per capita overstates the differential in quality of life between the two, perhaps by a lot. 2/ This gap has been exacerbated by the US adopting better countercyclical macro policies over the past 2 decades.
Is there a brain parasite in the water billionaires are drinking that makes them all post like this on the dumbest conspiracy theories?
Love it when journalists RT misinformation like “CPI doesn’t include shelter, energy, and food costs.”
The real “strategic blunder” by @NPR and other targets of this anti-democratic attack machine is not confronting it head-on. Rufo is, by his own terms, a “counter-revolutionary” zealot. He’s funded by billionaire extremists to take you out. FFS fight back.
No doubt this will be used by many as an easy way to satisfy the math requirement for their bachelors in woke studies
