Ditch the crypto bros and push forward with regulation.

There’s even a growing possibility we can avoid a recession.

Michael Tomasky and Felicia Wong discuss the policies that underlie the politics of the midterms.

The Federal Reserve has increased interest rates by .75 percent. Economists Ryan Sweet and Dean Baker explain what that means.

Over the last half-century, economics has infiltrated parts of the federal government where it has no business intruding. It can be a useful tool for policymaking, but it’s become the only tool. It’s time for economics to back the hell off.

Here in the United States, Republicans still fully intend to cut taxes. But they’ve largely stopped campaigning on it.

The party rode a little bit of midterm luck to get back in the running, but it might have waited too long to make its case on the economy.

Housing is the single biggest item eating most Americans’ paychecks every month. It’s time Democrats made it a centerpiece of their agenda.

A strong dollar is bad for exports. But no one cares because these days our most favored export is … the dollar.

Democrats should press the case against the GOP’s radicalism even further.

For their policies to succeed, Democrats need to tie their economic ideas to the broader ideals all Americans are taught to cherish.

There’s a lot left to do, but the administration’s four big bills—Covid relief, infrastructure, CHIPs, and the Inflation Reduction Act—are a stirring refutation of trickle-down economics.

Why can’t Democrats deliver the steep tax increases on corporations and the rich that voters demand?

The simplest way to fight global warming and injustice at the same time would be for the world’s richest countries to end the vicious debt cycle that forces poor countries to exploit natural resources.

Three consecutive presidents have changed the look of the country’s bills—not to address economic issues like inflation but to project their political values.

A new report in The Wall Street Journal unintentionally sheds light on what economists, including Lawrence Summers, have long known: Higher taxes reduce spending.

Two Washington Post articles this week suggest we’re “returning” to a time of savage inequality. Returning?!

We used to think a silver lining to economic downturns was that inequality halted. But new research suggests recessions speed inequality up.

By virtually every objective measure, Democrats do better. It’s not even close. So why doesn’t America know it?
