    Are consumption taxes really regressive? Nope. Once the informal sector is taken into account, consumption taxes can actually be progressive! See this important study by @pierrebachas @LucieGadenne & Anders Jensen for details on the methods & data 👇🏻

    Excited that our paper on transnational terrorist recruit is going to come out in ReStat! We use Daesh (Isis) personnel records to show that unemployment increases the odds of joining Daesh, but travel costs (geo distance) have a negative effect due to liquidity constraints.

    Can developing countries raise more property tax revenue? If yes, how should they do this? And do taxpayer liquidity constraints matter? A thread on our new paper with @J_C_Suarez, Alejandro Estefan, @karinarras. Blog & Paper: voxdev.org/topic/public-e… 👇 Thread [1/11]
