Had a terrific visit to @nationalbanken last week. Thanks a lot for having me!

[Filip Rozsypal @RozsypalFilip]

We were very happy to host @prtjns at @nationalbanken. We learned a lot about how firm respond to demand shocks, how it affects aggregate output and firm dynamics in general.

@FedericoHuneeus @FlorinBilbiie @mickey_gb I take offense at Poland being referred to as special. 🙂 Like Mishel said, I believe it's abolishing socialism, embracing free markets wherever possible and reasonable, and doing it well.

@priitpaasukene @paivootele @viljararakas Tahaks loota, et Eesti rahval on piisavalt pikk mälu teadmaks, kuhu sellised revolutsioonid viivad. Mõnes teises riigis (mõnel teisel ajajärgul?) võivad inimesed lühinägelikumad ning olukord hapram olla, nii et seadused/korrakaitse mängivad ehk suuremat rolli tasakaalu hoidmisel.

[Priit Jeenas @prtjns]

@tagtag_the_twat @paivootele @viljararakas Kes turumajanduses tarbida soovib, peab vastavalt ka tootmisse panustama. Loomulikult tekitab see teatavaid ebavõrdsusi. Lõpuks on see poliitiline küsimus, kui palju maksustamisega ümber jagada, riskides sellega, et ümberjagamine võib tihti majanduse tõhusust rikkuda.

[Priit Jeenas @prtjns]

@tagtag_the_twat @paivootele @viljararakas Seda, et inimesed vabas turumajanduslikus ühiskonnas otsustavad tööl käia, et leiba lauale teenida ning oma elujärge parandada, oleks üpris äärmuslik “orjuseks” kutsuda. (Kuigi ilmselt punased äärmused just nii seda näevad.)

[Priit Jeenas @prtjns]

@paivootele @viljararakas noortena säästetakse vähem, nii et töötatakse ka vanaduspõlves (x > oodatav eluiga) ning toodang kujuneb “noorte+vanade” tööjõu (ja kapitali) abil. Kummas ühiskonnas on inimeste heaolu kõrgem, on eelistuste ning majanduse eripärade (tootmistehnoloogia jne) küsimus.

[Priit Jeenas @prtjns]

@paivootele @viljararakas “vanade” kapitali ühildamise tulemusena. Idee seisneb selles, et pidevalt sünnib noori, kes pole sünnilt finantsvabad ning peavad selleni jõudmiseks tööjõudu rakendama. Seda võib kõrvutada ühiskonnaga, kus finantsvabadus pole ideaal:

The United States as the International Lender of Last Resort: very cool paper by @diegoebm (https://t.co/2hP6k302cb), who is on the market this year. This paper suggests that the US, rather than the banker of the world, really acts as the world's central banker. Check it out!

@susanluitsalu @Helendus Jep, täpselt. Tuli just meelde, kui NYCs foorita 🦓-le jalutasin, väääga korraliku varuga, et juht pidurdada saaks. Aga selle asemel pidas tema vajalikuks karjuda, et ma ikka ette vaataks ja nii ei teeks. Sellistes kohtades harjudki ajapikku üle minema, kust ja mil iganes tahad.

@brunoconteleite @Lagos_R_ @JPolEcon Thanks!

[Priit Jeenas @prtjns]

Good time to resurrect this 🧵 on "Q-Monetary Transmission" with @Lagos_R_ , now "Just Accepted" at @JPolEcon.

(A few decimals have been updated during revisions, but the main ideas in the 🧵 apply fully to the final version.) Looking forward to seeing it in print!

[Priit Jeenas @prtjns]

Our paper with @Lagos_R_, entitled “Q-Monetary Transmission”, is out as an NBER WP.

A thread is in order … #EconTwitter
