We’ve forgotten how terrible Africa’s HIV epidemic was & how important PEPFAR has been.

20 million people today depend on continued treatment from it, and its fate may be the most important issue facing global health this year.

This populism uses blame of outsiders to distract from regressive tax code changes, cutting the corporate tax (benefiting the well-off) & raising tariffs, a regressive consumption tax.

The GOP insisted on more offsets in the side deal, now totaling ~32.5 bn in real spending offsets.

How much tax $$ is lost from the 20.2 bn in IRS rescissions?

At least 38.1 bn.

It'd be cheaper to do it all as a gimmick. But this way, more rich people can cheat on their taxes.

To me, the key question isn't whether or not people like high food prices, but rather why food prices matter more than ultra-low unemployment, real wage gains, a wealth explosion, persistent economic growth, and rock-bottom foreclosure rates.

The launch of the U.S.' beneficial ownership registry marks a historic step forward to protect our economic and national security. A centralized database of beneficial ownership information will eliminate vulnerabilities in our financial system and help tackle illicit finance.

Blue states refuse to build enough housing or green energy, essentially leaving the job to the red states. This is holding back the entire United States. Blue states must learn how to build again!!

What do Taylor Swift, Claudia Goldin, Barbie, Janet Yellen, Beyonce, Mary Barra, and the Spanish soccer team have in common?

In 2023, women drove economic growth and our understanding of it.

The US subsidy-based approach was the best we could do in 2022, but IRA investments will only get part way to Paris commitments, write Kimberly Clausing & Catherine Wolfram. The US should put climate progress over protectionism.

Bob Solow was brilliant, generous and also hilarious. Though approaching retirement, he was still teaching my 1st yr and was absolutely great. He was the person every student wanted to be when they grew up. We will all miss his profound wisdom and humor. Goodbye old friend.
