minah bird just flew fully inside the apartment, hopped around behind me (guess i was so laser focused on my work...) until I heard it, then when i saw it and said "oh my god!" it deftly flew back out the open balcony door.

Fascinating paper by @grattonecon.bsky.social, @bartonelee2.bsky.social, and Hasin Yousaf!
The paper addresses a fundamental question: Why do some democracies chronically avoid ambitious, long-term reforms even when they have decent institutions?

My latest Economics Explained column in the Australian Financial Review points out that company taxes fall mainly on households. That they hit young, low-skilled, and female workers the hardest. And that they made the income tax schedule 40% less progressive.
