Birth Lottery If you were reborn today, where would you land? And how would that change your life?

This brilliant. I've experimented with making similar simulators before, but this from Giving What We Can is so well executed and needed right now... some perspective, and just how lucky we (some of us) are. #charity #wealth #redistribution #fairness #equity #equality

New paper alert! 🚨

What are the aggregate effects of NIMBY policies? How much GDP would we gain from building more in productive cities?

I show that how house prices are modelled matters for the answer. Most popular house price functions and microfoundations *underestimate* policy gains! #econsky
