The case for (high) minimum wages and collective agreements. Great op-ed introducing Arin Dube‘s fantastic new book „The Wage Standard“.
I talked to NBC about FIFA clandestinely dumping World Cup tickets for low-demand games onto resale platforms.
This World Cup will be the ultimate K-shaped tournament for ticket prices.
Some low-demand games will be almost free, but most games will be very expensive.

Steve Salop, Allan Collard-Wexler, Marty Gaynor, Nancy Rose, Larry White, and I joined an amicus brief supporting reversal in FTC v. Meta.

Today we hosted @florianederer.bsky.social (Boston University) for a #seminar on "Disclosure and the Pace of Drug Development", joint with Cunningham, Hodgson & Wang. More transparency, faster innovation? Think again: policy design can have surprising results! #econtwitter #Pharmaceuticals

Great arguments explaining why the court got the wrong answer in the antitrust case against Meta.

The range of conflicts of interests (journal editorships, self-owned consulting LLC, children working at the ASSA meeting) disclosed in the latest AEA executive committee meeting is super interesting.

Nobody is better at restoring the public's trust in universities than a NY Times columnist lecturing students on "how to fall in love with someone" ...
... or "how to divorce your wife of 27 years for your much younger research assistant"?
We are not serious institutions.
