- Reposted by Jakob WegmannDevastating news at IZA yesterday. More than 25 years of hard work, earned reputation, and valuable institutional knowledge and public good provision wiped out with a single stroke. It’s hard to find the words.

- Hello #EconSky! 📢Excited to share my #JMP 📢 It provides a missing piece to understand how people react to income taxation. Tldr: By changing tax pre-payments governments can - with almost no costs - increase perceived work incentives of secondary earners and reduce the gender gap. Thread below👇🧵
- It is well documented that a large proportion of tax payers do not understand income taxes: 1️⃣ The tax rates that apply to them 2️⃣ The difference between marginal and average tax rates ➡️ Households’ reactions to income taxes depends on the PERCEIVED tax rates
