@BostonGlobe — how can you miss that progressives (over some Biden economist objections) made the EV charger tax credit incentivize putting them in low-income rural areas? whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/… bostonglobe.com/2024/04/27/bus…
Nice article @FT I also like that these students *care* They are young and some voices are wrong, but Universities should care about them: appropriately discipline, but also teach and protect them from the outside immovable, powerful, & uncaring elders. on.ft.com/4a0D8ay
Let me take a moment to honor, thank, and highlight @isawhill. I worked in her section at the Urban Institute before PhD. A great economist. I try to ask questions like she did: insightful, nice, but questioning all policies and thinking critically about how to improve them.

Bad policy. Both in theory, and as evidence shows, in practice, with terrible consequences for economies.

On Columbia president having students arrested: we are back to the previous situation with the encampment, and it seems very unlikely that anyone will get arrested again unless things escalate beyond that. So, no matter your preferences, that decision was a costly mistake.
Complete agreement. Some are covering up business interests as national interest. Anyone who wages a war of aggression should know their reserves are at risk. And if they feel Reminbi is safer, let them invest there. The @ecb should stop being on the way. Take those reserves.

Seeing my Institution not be in the news
Apparently it needs to be said… When you’re violently arresting your own faculty and charging them with battery for asking a police officer kneeling on a student’s head “what are you doing?”, you’re probably doing something wrong.
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.
Imagine supporting this while also claiming that the current account deficit is too wide...

Countries that have experimented with political "consultation" on monetary policy have experienced prolonged periods of inflation. The most recent example is Turkey, whose inflation rate is currently 68 percent - the result of politics driving Turkey's monetary policy decisions.

To suggest that one of the most heavily regulated sectors in our economy is an example of 40 years of “free markets left to their own devices” is an interesting interpretation of our financial landscape.
Financial markets left to their own devices do not make economies and those who live in them free, despite what Milton Friedman said. Lots of data over 40 years shows we’re actually worse off. We need a new way to think about markets, economic policy and what we want our society…
My daughter just took a career aptitude test. Much to her dismay, the test said she would be an excellent . . . economist. And to add insult to injury, the second suggestion was an economics professor. I guess the invisible hand doesn't fall far from the tree.
It's funny to me that so many economists are children of economists. My children are like, 1) everyone's parent is an economist, and 2) economics sounds *so* boring.
