Member of landowning family gets to do a talk on being a success & turning her life around after being an alcoholic screw up, as her auntie has given her a job managing posh riding stables. Huzzah! Redemption. Success! #TrickleDown 2/
Her cousins Ben and Josh are given cheap rent in a nice big house, owned by the other owner of the stables. Who happens to be another auntie. Handy! #TrickleDown 3/
Reflections on the morning after - and especially the markets… 🧵
It may well take some time for the dust to settle on #KwasiKwarteng’s first #Budget (yes, 'Budget’: if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it’s fair to call it a duck)...

The initial reaction from most economic commentators and in the financial markets has been a loud boo! There are some things I would have done differently. But the overall strategy is sound, and sentiment should recover as the economic benefits become clearer...
There are two aspects I particularly liked. One is the emphasis on breaking the ‘doom loop’ of weak economic growth and rising taxes, both with tax cuts and – at least as importantly – structural reforms on the supply-side...

Steuersenkungen haben keinen signifikanten Effekt auf das Wirtschaftswachstum. Das neoliberale Narrativ „Steuern runter, Wirtschaftswachstum rauf“ #trickledown wird eindeutig widerlegt👇🏼Den Effekt, den Steuersenkungen allerdings sehr wohl haben: die Einkommensungleichheit wächst.
Dass Steuersenkungen zu höheren Investitionen führen, ist auch falsch.|Steuern wurden in den letzten Jahrzehnten gesenkt, was zu mehr #Ungleichheit führte & keine positiven Effekte auf Investitionen hatte. Stattdessen fehlen Mittel gg.die #Klimakrise, für Bildung & Infrastruktur.

/PM hat die Aussage getroffen, Steuersenkungen schaffen keine Investitionen.
"Liberale" und ihre Verwandten meinen, die Aussage sei falsch.
In diesem Thread möchte ich euch zeigen, dass die Aussage von /PM richtig ist. /TN #Thread

1. Ein wichtiger Akteur für Investitionen ist die öffentliche Hand.
Die öffentliche Hand bist du und ich, die durch Steuern den Staat die finanziellen Mittel stellen.

Prof. Tom Krebs schätzt das Investitionsvolumen auf 45,7 Mrd. € pro Jahr.

Durch die #Coronavirus-Pandemie dürfte das tatsächliche Investitionsvolumen noch einmal gesteigert sein.
Auch andere Ausgaben - von der Parkbank bis zum Panzer werden aus öffentliche Mittel bestritten.
Eine Kürzung dieser Ausgaben träfe die Wirtschaft also direkt.

Taustalla on vuosittainen #vero'tietojen julkaisu sekä viime vuosina kasvanut pyrkimys rikkailla piilottaa tilastot julkisuudelta. Verotietojen avoimuuden lisäksi Vasemmistonuoret vaatii #varallisuusveroa ja yksityisomistuskaton säätämistä Suomessa. 2/

Today’s #nusp2018 is on #trickledown. Does it work? Stay tuned!
Group 1 argues it does. First point, trickledown dose not redistribute, it works because it creates extra resources
Group 1 starts from the Laffer curve. Then they mie to investment and job creation, i.e wages and revenues, then the multiplier kicks in
