A Note on Aggregating Preferences for Redistribution Open
The policy predictions of standard heterogeneous agent macroeconomic models are often at odds with observed policies. We use the 2021 General Social Survey to investigate the drivers of individuals' preferences over taxes and redistributio…

Optimal fiscal reform with many taxes Open
We study the optimal one-shot tax reform in the standard incomplete markets model where households differ in their wealth, earnings, permanent labor skill, and age. The government can provide transfers by raising tax revenue and has severa…

Equilibrium Multiplicity in Aiyagari and Krusell-Smith Open
Repeatedly solving the Aiyagari (1994) model with random parameters, we construct hundreds of examples with multiple stationary equilibria. We never find multiplicity with risk aversion less than ≈ 1.49, depreciation less than ≈ 0.19, or i…

Consumer Bankruptcy and Unemployment Insurance Open
We quantitatively evaluate the effects of UI on bankruptcy in an equilibrium model of labor market search and defaultable debt. First, we ask whether a standard unsecured credit model extended with labor market search and matching friction…

Business cycle asymmetry and input-output structure: The role of firm-to-firm networks Open
We study the network origins of business cycle asymmetries using cross-country and administrative firm-level data. At the country level, we document that countries with a larger number of non-zero intersectoral linkages (denser networks) d…

Data from Autophagic Survival in Resistance to Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors: Novel Strategies to Treat Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors Open
Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) show promise as cancer therapeutics; however, the full scope of their utility remains unknown. Here we report findings that strongly rationalize clinical evaluation of HDACis in malignant peripheral n…

The Dynamics of the Racial Wealth Gap Open
What drives the dynamics of the racial wealth gap? We answer this question using a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium heterogeneous-agents model. Our calibrated model endogenously produces a racial wealth gap matching that observed in …

The Effect of Minimum Wages on Consumer Bankruptcy Open
We use cross-state differences in minimum wage (MW) levels and county-level consumer bankruptcy rates from 1991-2017 to estimate the effect of changes in minimum wages on consumer bankruptcy by exploiting policy discontinuities at state bo…

Race- and gender-based under-representation of creative contributors: art, fashion, film, and music Open
Motivated by the well-established benefits to society of artistic creation and of demographic diversity, we investigate the gender and racial/ethnic composition of influential contributors to four creative domains. Women make up 51% of the…
