Presentamos en el #Vaticano el Reporte del Jubileo, un enorme trabajo colectivo de más de 30 economistas y expertos legales de todos los continentes que nos encomend�� el Papa Francisco para trazar un camino para la solución de las crisis de deuda y del desarrollo que están sufriendo decenas de países en el mundo.

Los invito a leer el Reporte, que contribuye al legado de ese gran maestro que es Francisco, y en particular a su llamado a transformar las finanzas internacionales en favor de una prosperidad compartida.

Proposed cuts to federal research funding won’t just affect #scientists — they impact our #economy. A study from @impamodel found a 25% reduction in public research funding would decrease GDP by 3.8% — comparable to the Great Recession.

The House reconciliation bill would extend—and raise to 23%—the QBI deduction. IMPA’s analysis finds no economic justification: no impact on investment or growth, substantial revenue loss, and regressive distributional effects. Read our full report here: https://t.co/n6xvSG8zU7

Trump's proposed budget would switch off huge swaths of America's scientific enterprise - from NASA to cancer research to disaster forecasting.

"The economy tomorrow is going to be smaller because you decided to cut that funding today.”

IMPA’s new research on the long-run costs of cutting federal R&D funding is featured in today’s
@nytimes

The findings are clear: plausible cuts would shrink U.S. GDP for generations.

Research from @impamodel shows that cutting taxes on the rich doesn’t help the economy, and would actually weaken the government’s fiscal position.

Alternatively, raising the top marginal tax rate to just 44% could significant increase federal revenue. https://t.co/zkHD2qFr7S

Extending the TCJA's tax cuts for high earners would forgo these benefits.

Did you hear the talk about some Republicans being open to raising taxes on top earners? If anyone is still worried about higher taxes on the rich hurting economic growth, we have good news: they don’t.

What they undeniably do is raise revenue and reduce income inequality.
