ICYMI: Companies that moved to a four-day workweek without cutting pay are seeing better results.
It's proving that working smarter—not longer—is the way to go.

"A review of corporate & real estate records in Florida shows [Guillermo] Lasso-linked shell companies’ holdings have increased since 2017, raising questions over the legality of Lasso’s candidacy." @JakobJohnston#Ecuador#EcuadorDecide#Elecciones2021Ec
Nearly 8 months after #Bolivia's president Evo Morales was ousted in a coup amid allegations of electoral fraud, @nytimes reports that the OAS' claims of fraud in the 2019 general elections “relied on incorrect data & inappropriate statistical techniques.” cepr.net/press-release/…
The U.S. imposed economic sanctions are expected to kill 4X MORE Afghans than estimated to have died during the entire two-decades-long conflict. Let us be clear--these sanctions are wrong and immoral.
NEW VIDEO: Right now, as we speak, America is causing a famine in Afghanistan. Millions of lives are at risk. And the U.S. government is doing nothing.

Millionaires & billionaires should pay #SocialSecurity tax ALL year on ALL income like the rest of us. Right now, they only pay on the first $168k and stop in March.

Dissolving congress & his own administration "wouldn’t be #Lasso’s preferred option but if it looks like he’s about to be impeached he might go down that route,” @GullaumeLong told the @FT re the scandal around @LassoGuillermo & the #PandoraPapers#Ecuador
Our new report includes the results of 500 simulations that show that #Morales’s first-round victory was not just possible, but probable, based on the results of the initial 83.85% of votes in the quick count. #BoliviaElecciones2019#Boliviacepr.net/publications/r…
We are reviewing @OAS_official's Final Audit Report on Bolivia's elections.
The report repeats the worst errors of their previous work and introduces more. This is not an objective audit. We'll have a response soon.
CEPR will publish an in-depth review in the coming days.
"The #PandoraPapers provide new evidence that [#Ecuador president Guillermo] Lasso has long had an intricate web of offshore shell companies registered in problematic jurisdictions. The new leak...adds a number of formerly unknown entities" @GuillaumeLong
"Moreno’s government has deliberately restricted its fiscal leeway to respond to the #coronavirus emergency. As @ecuarauz points out, Moreno eliminated the Central Bank’s electronic money system, which would be highly useful to provide financial aid" nacla.org/news/2020/04/2…
