Has anyone noticed that everyone who uses AI less than you is a an out-of-date luddite and everyone who uses it more than you has forgotten how to think for themselves and trusts it too much

Workers' outcomes are highly non-linear, even non-monotone in the pace of sectoral shifts. More and more workers gain as a transition accelerates, but the tail of losses thickens, from John R. Grigsby and Nathan Zorzi www.nber.org/papers/w34922

Figure shows the number of immigrants arriving in Israel from the former Soviet Union, by year.

The integration of immigrants is the subject of contentious public debates. This column studies the labour market outcomes of nearly one million Jews who migrated from the former Soviet Union to Israel in the 1990s and were granted Israeli citizenship upon arrival. The immigrants initially worked in lower-paying firms than natives, but narrowed the wage gap with natives by switching jobs more often and making larger upward moves when they did. Policies that tie immigrants to a single employer or delay unrestricted work authorisation may slow access to better firms and delay convergence.

J Arellano-Bover & S San use evidence from Jews who immigrated to Israel from the former USSR in the 90s & were granted citizenship upon arrival to show policies that delay unrestricted work authorisation may slow access to better firms & delay convergence.

The reason most households are two income is that wages went *up*.

As wages increase, "working in a company" becomes a better option than "working in domestic production".

Trump is at heart a Latin American-style populist*, so here’s how this could go: having created scarcity with stupid policies, he will now accuse malevolent Democrat gas station owners of price gouging, announce a freeze on gas prices, and ask his supporters to report violations. Always works!
