People in physically demanding jobs can't always wait until their mid-60s to retire, but they're too young to claim Social Security. What to do? I'll be talking about this on Sept 14 with a stellar panel hosted by @SocialInsurance and AARP. Register: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

We (the Economics Dept. at St. Olaf College) are hiring TWO tenure-track economists in broadly-defined applied micro. I’m biased but I genuinely believe this is the best place to work. Friendly, helpful colleagues. Brilliant students. Small college town OR the Twin Cities. (1/2)

labor reporting is actually hard! it takes a lot of specialized knowledge, and more publications could hire them and avoid making embarrassing basic errors when there's big labor news, I am just saying.

I just stepped in as Associate Editor of Sociological Methods & Research! SMR welcomes articles engaging all research methods, including *qualitative* research, although we see far fewer of these submissions. What does an excellent SMR qualitative methods article look like? Check

Social Security is the backbone of U.S. retirement security. Serves 90%+ of older Americans. Amazing! I personally want to know that when my turn comes I'll get good help & info from experienced SSA staff. Adequately funding SSA: top of my Boring But Important list

I had a great time talking about OVERTIME and inequalities in work, aging & retirement at Trinity College Dublin. Lots of terrific questions!

Most middle class, college educated people (i.e., most people likely reading this post) will not notice this sharp reduction in wage inequality driven by rising pay for bottom half of wage earners in America. But it's a big deal for tens of millions of working families.

This is true, but the most important way the Biden administration has helped pocketbooks is by boosting earnings, which are outpacing inflation, especially for middle income families. That's happened through making spending, demand, and jobs policy priorities.

Measuring wage trends during downturns is hard as low-wage workers are more likely to get laid off. Esp true during Covid. This is why comparing wages from 2021 to 2023 is misleading. Has caused confusion lately. Here's the evidence you need to see this clearly. 🧵 1/

As an American economist, I feel in part it's my own failing (and our collective failing) that so many our my fellow Americans don't yet understand how important and successful this President's economic policies have been.
