The One Agency Act is a good first step. But it does not go far enough, argues Darren Bush. Let's create the Zero Agency Act and make antitrust enforcement efficient.
Very much looking forward to our

I'm a refugee of #EconTwitter. Can anyone point out good accounts to follow here related to #Economics or #Economy or a list of them.
Used to read them on #Twitter but since #Threads seems to be delivering a final killshot for it looking for econ coverage here.

Let's start with my definition of #fullemployment
Full Employment: when aggregate spending is sufficient to elicit output levels, which at current productivity levels will provide enough jobs (measured in working hours) for all the workers who desire to work and all who want to work #econtwitter #econ #economics
In order to contribute to #opendata , I post as much data as legally allowed on my data repository at Erasmus University. You can find data on Chinese equity markets, the global market portfolio, historical exchange rates (1916-1925), and global bond returns. Have a look!

Hi everyone!
I'm a PhD student at Cambridge University, visiting Princeton this AY.
My research is in macro- and labor economics. I'm particularly interested in the topics of productivity/inequality/unemployment/uncertainty, eclectically using
methods.
I twee...toot summaries of papers I find particularly interesting/important/enjoyable.
Hello all!
I'm a PhD student at King's Business School, King's College London (#KCL) and also affiliated with the Qatar Centre for Global Banking and Finance (#QCGBF).
I'm interested in applied #timeseries, #businesscycle analysis and lately, I've been studying #regimeswitching models.
My homepage is https://szlatanos.github.io/
For my #introduction, here mostly to post and follow some hobbies and interests in #transit, #urban, #blender, #lgbtqia, and #photography, including but not just limited to #dogs.
May also occasionally post about my day job as an #academic #economist (#econTwitter).
Hello #econtwitter and #mastodon.social! My #introduction: I am Full Professor in Economics at #CUNY (City University of New York) in #NYC. My research is distributed across three broad highly #policy relevant topics: (1) #Policies #Institutions, and #SocialJustice in #LaborEconomics and #HumanCapital Development; (2) #SocialNorms and #Behavioral #Decisions; and (3) #PublicHealth Issues. Right now working on two different topics: #DomesticViolence & #COVID in #HigherEducation.
I'm an economist working mainly on #spacedebris and orbit use, and a little on other environmental things like infectious disease and wildfires. I like theory a lot and I'm learning to like data stuff again
I like to play video games, read speculative fiction, and most computer-y things. I'm trying to get back into playing violin so I may post some music too
I teach at Middlebury College to keep 2 demanding cats in treats and toys
Personal news: after three years in the European Parliament I am going back to academia -will spend next academic year as a visiting professor of economics at @Columbia and @UChicago @chicagobooth. Looking forward to many fruitful interactions and resetting my mind.
