A problem with the minimum wage is that more poor people shop at places which employ minimum wage workers than work there. If minimum wage hikes pass through to goods prices, this will actually transfer to rich households!
Legitimately good math educ content from my beloved Patriots on how many holes a straw has. Caedan Wallace reads the topological defn. His teammate goes "walk in front door, through the house, out back door, how many holes you went through? 2!" Why we say "one" in math is subtle!

In the long run, 37% of donations accrue to the top five executives. Be wary of people who claim not to work for profit.

I have just posted my survey paper “Deep Learning for Solving Economic Models” on my webpage: sas.upenn.edu/~jesusfv/Deep_… In one or two weeks, it will also circulate as a working paper at the NBER and CEPR. Still, I wanted to let people know already, since I am quite happy with the…
The quality of management was, for years, a black box to economists. Everyone believed it had to matter. Nobody had the data to study it seriously until Bloom and Van Reenen (2007). 1/

We usually rely on GDP, trade, or wages to study the past. This paper flips the script. It analyzes 630,000 paintings (1400-2000) with machine learning to extract emotions and shows how art tracks living standards, wars, inequality, and even climate shocks.
Part of Obamacare limited the profits which insurance companies could get. If the gap between premiums paid and revenue is too big, they have to write their policyholders a check. So what’s it done? Only increased medical costs in America.
Hot take! This is a sign of a good doctor.

I recently learned about the Chinese cultivation fantasy genre and I have to say it's quite on the nose that the western fantasy cliche is "you were secretly special but didn't know it" while in China it is "grindmaxxing can do anything"
Economics today resembles Catholic theology in medieval Europe: a developed theory of the trinity such that there is one essence (economics), represented by three persons (macro, micro, metrics), clarifying the union of divine and human natures
In 1996, the Supreme Court ruled Rhode Island’s ban on liquor advertising unconstitutional. Afterwards, the prices of advertised products fell relative to Massachusetts. An underrated early difference-in-differences study. 1/
Come for the "Breaking Bad" references, stay for the fascinating paper about how health shocks - in this case, cancer diagnoses - lead people to commit more crime. Perhaps we are all Walter White? Worse health means it's tougher to hold down a legal job, and long punishments are…

Best paper on measuring the impacts of an independent Fed is @td_econ, who has a very cool way of measuring Fed-White House interactions and their effects. Finds “increasing political pressure by half as much as Nixon, for six months, raises the price level more than 8%”
This paper shows a strong passthrough from carbon prices to energy prices, with spillovers into other consumer prices, yielding a sizeable average welfare loss in consumption. Hardest hit: younger, poorer, and less educated households, especially in Southern and Eastern Europe.
NEW RESEARCH by former professors at Harvard and UC-Berkeley answers the question: How do tenant protections like "just cause eviction," right-to-counsel, and source-of-income impact rents? Answer: They drive up rents -- especially for the lowest-income renters. Findings: 🧵
New working paper alert 🚨 We investigate the influence of police unions in U.S. local politics. We show that in cities where the mayor was supported by a police union, police departments obtain more resources, but, if anything, police performance worsens in these cities.
If you start your cover letter with “I am an aspiring economist” I will throw away your application. No one should ever aspire towards this.
