yep, and revenue from the corporate income tax as almost 20% below CBO's April projection. This means that the claim they would cut the rates and eliminate the loopholes was only half true. twitter.com/paulkrugman/st…

I'm excited to present an interview with @DeanBaker13, economist, author, progressive, and founder of @ceprdc!
He is a beacon of lucid pragmatism amidst a sea of (often willingly) inscrutable mainstream narratives. Please enjoy!

The US #sanctions on #Venezuela are "even worse" than those the US imposed on Iraq prior to the 2003 invasion because with Iraq "they actually had an oil for food program that allowed them to export a fair amount of oil," @MarkWeisbrot told @TheRealNews. therealnews.com/stories/us-san…

NYT goes Trumpian in its coverage of U.S. trade with China. If Russia holds three times as much in foreign reserves as it should, given its GDP, as it told readers earlier this month, the so does China (1/2) cepr.net/blogs/beat-the…

"The #sanctions since August 2017 created a financial embargo, & that has cost the economy...many billions of dollars...along with the imports of medicine, food, & spare parts, & everything else. So the aid is really...symbolic"
