    Never use Academia-not-edu or ResearchGate. If you want to share your working papers, put them on your website or use an open archive. It's a disgrace that the academia thing even has a .edu domain.

    If there are two things de Blasio is committed to, it's traffic deaths and carbon emissions. He'll do whatever he can to make sure we have more of both.

    This is a real question, not a rhetorical one, btw.

    Is there any similar updating going on with graduate macro?

    Great analysis of our current fiscal situation. Spoiler alert: if you’re worried about the debt you’re doing it wrong, and we desperately need more public investment.

    Very useful thread on how social democracy's turn toward austerity looks from the inside.

    Another of these "private equity kills beloved retail chain" stories. The impact of private equity on American industry is one of the great overlooked stories right now, but finally people are digging into it.

    Sadly there does not seem to be an English translation.

    People are dragging this tweet, but show some respect. The hardworking son of a lowly Gramsci scholar, Pete Buttigieg worked his way up through the school of hard knocks at Harvard and Oxford, then spent long days alongside his brothers in the bread price fixing mines at McKinsey

    Speaking of the CBO: Despite the big downward adjsutment they made in interest projections in August () they still overestimated 2019 rates and had to adjust their interest rate forecast down again.

    Folks, I’m really excited to share the launch of a mini course I did with the legendary for . is meant to be just that—a set of 5 intro lectures for anyone interested in getting a feel of the issue. 1/n

    It's not enough to say, we need bigger deficits, we need more fiscal policy. There are major institutional and political obstacles to increased public spending, from the growth and stability pact in Europe to PAYGO and the CBO in the US. You need a real crisis to get past them.

    Here's a very thorough piece from on the porblems created by excessive deference to the Congressional Budget Office.

    Methodologically, we try to do the kind of macro calls ‘accounting + history’. Headline data (e.g., bank credit/GDP) allow for comparison but often miss within-country changes. Slicing & dicing sectoral balance sheet data is a fruitful analytical tool for CPE. 12/n

    I've been saying for a while that the answer to secular stagnation is a Green New Deal. It's only thing with scale and urgency to overcome austerity bias and get the level of new spending called for. Glad to see reaching similar conclusion.

    In some ways, British neoliberalism is in advance of ours.

    "Why won't you condemn killing and eating innocent puppy dogs?" "OK: I am 100% against eating puppies." "The fact that he had to condemn puppy eating, shows how deep-seated his lust for puppy flesh really is."

    This is a perfect illustation of the way that holding financial assets can lead to subordinating real activity to finance, just as much as being in debt does. Probably especially true for state/local governments.
