Ideas matter—I am proud of how the team at CEA has contributed to them, am glad our dedicated staff will keep doing that from the inside.
Bigger contributions to smaller issues is also important. Some favorites: spectrum, COI in retirement savings, and competition.
The debate is not always proportional to importance. Expanded EITC/CTC—passed in 2009 and now permanent—help 16 million poor people annually
It is important to make even small contributions to big things: the Recovery Act and the ACA certainly qualify as big.
But for my final words from @CEAChair I want to briefly mention some of what I most proud of which is policy.
I recently did tweetstorms on my favorite CEA reports and speeches (all at whitehouse.gov/administration…), in the future will be @jasonfurman
Tomorrow is my last day on this Twitter handle, looking forward to being @jasonfurman starting Friday.
@davidckamin notice the bars jump up around 2009, know anyone who might have put some of those in the baseline?
All of these will remain available through the archived Obama Administration website which goes up post-1/20 obamawhitehouse.gov/administration…
Too many to thank for these, but Matt Aks, Eric Van Nostrand, Harris Eppsteiner, Jess Schumer, Andie Taverna and Jeff Goldstein all critical
