2020: Sierra Club sues to stop a transmission line from brining clean hydropower from Canada to Maine 2024: Sierra Club sues the Maine government for not doing enough to combat climate change
My hot take is that free markets and pro-family social policies are complements but YMMV.
I'm thrilled to announce the launch of the Inclusive Abundance Initiative (inclusiveabundance.org) — a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization I founded last year that is dedicated to shaping America’s future through an abundance-focused agenda. More here: linkedin.com/posts/activity…
Very interesting paper * Union election wins -> less employment, site closures * But mostly in manufacturing + multi-site employers, who can close a union plant and move work to a non-union plant. * Services unions don't lower employment much census.gov/library/workin…
Unemployment insurance is experience rated. When a firm lays off workers, its future UI taxes go up. Seems logical, but that system has perverse unexpected consequences, says Matt Darling (@besttrousers) in this new analysis from @NiskanenCenter niskanencenter.org/creating-a-mor…
Hey folks, I have a new big paper up at @NiskanenCenter. It's about the weird way that the USA finances our unemployment insurance system and how it is RUINING THE LABOR MARKET.

Inheritance, estate, and gift taxes might look tempting, but their limited capacity to collect revenue and their negative impact on entrepreneurial activity, savings, and work should make policymakers reconsider repealing them instead of boosting them. hubs.ly/Q02tGC040
I'm excited to dig in because recent state CTC changes are a great way to explore potential labor impact of CTC refundability but I've got some initial skepticism of using California (in particular) where change was dropping a $1 earnings requirement.

Forthcoming paper from @DrJPCunningham and @agoodmanbacon in AEJ: Applied finds that legal programs in the War on Poverty led to lower marriage rates and more non-marital fertility
Concerned about marriage penalties in federal social programs? You should be. But fix them at the source, which is SNAP and EITC. Don't blame proposed changes in the child tax credit, says @LeahLibresco of @NiskanenCenter niskanencenter.org/a-more-generou…
NEW from me: My new Issue Brief takes on the lazy contention that simply eliminating the $168,600 wage cap on Social Security taxes can bring long-term solvency without the need for spending savings (and is progressive reform). Neither point is true. 🧵 manhattan.institute/article/proble…
There's this weird thing where parents will move to a rich suburban district and then feel morally superior to anyone who sends their kid to private school, or even get angry at parents who do so. I don't get it. You deserve very little (no?) moral credit for this.

Doomscrolling sociology twitter reminds me that I don’t miss the delusional self-importance mixed with self-righteousness that seems to be required in some corners of the discipline.
Child-care subsidies, marriage penalties and maternity care all deserve attention, but one government action that would greatly help today’s parents is almost entirely local—and involves concrete, grass and some crosswalk paint. // Me, in the WSJ >> wsj.com/health/wellnes…
"We find no evidence that [CA's paid leave] increased employment, boosted earnings, or encouraged childbearing, suggesting [it] had little effect on the gender pay gap or child penalty." From a forthcoming paper by @martha_j_bailey, @elenaspatel, Tanya Byker, and Shanthi Ramnath

Lot of lessons in here that all sorts of policymakers should learn! "Anyone who has done tech procurement over the yrs has learned two important things about making software. First, things change. Second, it’s impossible to predict the future in order to avoid making mistakes."

American families are best served by a dynamic and entrepreneurial market economy that raises incomes and generates opportunity like no other. And yes, that comes with a level of disruption. Adults and conservatives should understand trade-offs, unlike populists and children.
The conservative movement must stop defending free markets (though it is a good) and start defending the American family for which the free market was created to serve.
Baby bonus | child allowance > baby bonds
In my latest for @compactmag_ I argue that the growing buzz around baby bonds is due to the idea's compatibility with a neoliberalized, market-centric approach to welfare. What the US needs is a radical overhaul of family policy compactmag.com/article/why-ba…
What does this even mean?
Donald Trump was very proud of his $2 trillion tax cut that overwhelmingly benefited the wealthy and biggest corporations and exploded the federal debt. That tax cut is going to expire. If I’m reelected, it’s going to stay expired.
Here it is. Biden plans to extend 2/3 of it. But comes up with magic asterisks for offsets and claims his budget is balanced
Oh, it works baby!!
Forty-odd years after neoliberalism took hold it’s clear it doesn’t work. In fact, it never had either a robust theory or the data to back up its claims. Time to introduce a new, more freeing capitalism that allows all people to live up to their potential. That’s what I do in my…
