One week ago, I lost my grand-father. Beyond being the greatest grandpa on earth, he also lived an incredible life. Because I always thought that his story was a fantastic historical lesson related to what I research on, I want to share it. Thread on a European success story

Cheap labor and lax labor regulations— not just productivity — shape trade competitiveness, even in the supposedly harmonized EU. Domestic labor and tax policy matter for globalization and how ``fair'' people perceive international competition to be.

New study on Sweden's wealth tax: 1/3 of wealthy out-migration flows were caused by the wealth tax, but it didn't hurt total tax revenues or the country's economy much. Migration responses to the wealth tax are much too small to make the repeal of the tax pay for itself!
