New article on how international organizations frame the future of work. We see find a mix of solutionism emulating tech entrepreneurs and Schumpeterian distruction leaving little space for real regulation for social & labor rights. https://t.co/Lx0gYKMG4j

To rebuild our democracy, we must commit to the long-term process of supporting policy focused candidates, resisting the hatred that flourishes on social media, and restoring the integrity of our federal government.

There is no easy fix.

Do corporate tax cuts boost economic growth?

Nope.

"There is evidence for publication selectivity in favor of reporting growth-enhancing effects of corporate tax cuts. Correcting for this bias, We cannot reject the hypothesis of a zero effect of corporate taxes on growth."

@BrankoMilan The West, and the US in particular, were always context-liberal in economic affairs: liberal only when it suits us, protectionist when not.

As someone trained as a trade economist, it is my duty to share the 1929-1933 Kindleberger Spiral, showing the month-month decline in global trade due to the combined factors of the (global) Great Depression and retaliatory tariffs. Smooth Hawley is implemented mid-June 1930.

@lufthansaOtto As I said, I have solved the issue. The problem was a formating issue. The ticket number contained formating elements which produced problems requesting the document.

[Achim Kemmerling @AchKem]

@Lufthansa_DE ich brauche eine Zahlungsbestätigung, aber, um die Zahlungsbestätigung herunter laden zu können, brauche ich die Nummer, die auf der Zahlungsbestätigung zu lesen ist. Das klingt nach Kafka. Bitte helfen Sie mir.
