Asst Professor of Economics @ University of Victoria. Labo(u)r, public, urban, applied micro. Let's go for a hike and talk research
I was disappointed with several elements of The @economist.com recent articles on minimum wages. To their credit, they've published my response.
Here are some links to the research I reference and to some other research which had to be cut from the published letter

Great comments from @econmarshall.bsky.social and the @utah.edu econ crowd during my presentation on Monotony Power and the US Social Safety Net. Also, what incredible surroundings for a campus!
