    Shows in real time the change in unemployment across the country since the start of the recession. Also a neat addition---you can select up to 5 states and compare the changes in unemployment on a line graph next to the interactive graph...

revenue limits tax spend hauser's law

shared by Aaron Palm on 19 May 10 - Cached
  • President Obama's fiscal 2011 budget, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates a deficit that starts at 10.3% of GDP in 2010. It is projected to narrow as the economy recovers but will still be 5.6% in 2020. As a result the net national debt (debt held by the public) will more than double to 90% by 2020 from 40% in 2008.
  • They do not include deficit spending resulting from the new health-insurance legislation. The revenue numbers rely on increased tax rates beginning next year resulting from the scheduled expiration of the Bush tax cuts. And, as usual, they ignore the unfunded liabilities of social insurance programs,
  • "Hauser's Law," as I call this formula, reveals a kind of capacity ceiling for federal tax receipts at about 19% of GDP.

    We can never collect more than 20% tax rate

    Useful chart to demonstrate Specialization and how every country is good at something.  
  • Tim Schilling on 23 May 10
     
    It is very interesting. I posted on my blog at http://valuingeconomics.blogspot.com on Thursday. As I said there, I'm not sure some of those "specializations" are something a country would necessarily be proud of - or something they could "trade." But it is a good example of how every country is "good" at something.

  • Adam Smith may seem unremarkable. But here is Dominique Strauss-Kahn citing the great man in November 2010: “The disposition to admire, and almost to worship, the rich and the powerful and…neglect persons of poor and mean condition…is the great and most universal cause of the corruption of our moral sentiments.”
  • Seth Roberts on 30 Jan 11
     
    This article is perfect for teaching the gini coefficient in the real world.

    This is an excellent graphic, I showed it to my AP Macro students. They can't exactly explain it yet, but it certainly had a powerful impact. Will use it again later in the year for sure.
