When I worked at the Council of Economic Advisers in the 1980s, I was officially attached to the Maritime Administration (bc the Reagan admin wanted the WH staff to look smaller than it was). Marty Feldstein used to call me "Midshipman Krugman" — PolitiTweet.org

As this article says, Warren called me to preview her M4A plan. Small funny detail: I was actually teaching when my phone went off, and I just let it go into voice mail. Didn't find out until later that it was her. We managed to connect later in the day https://t.co/32N1MsFVrR — PolitiTweet.org

Have the Republican-leaning economists who praised the cut to the skies issued any mea culpas? Or does being on the right mean never having to say you're sorry? 3/ https://t.co/zUIDKmmTCY — PolitiTweet.org

Well, everyone makes a bad prediction now and then. Go knows I have. But when that happens, you're supposed to engage in some soul-searching. Was your basic model wrong? Did you engage in motivated reasoning? So, has anyone seen that from any prominent tax-cut supporter? 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump tax cut has been a big flop — huge giveaways to corporations, no visible rise in investment. So the critics were right, and the supporters wrong 1/ https://t.co/HyhDpIR5NE — PolitiTweet.org

Just as everyone seems to be sounding the all-clear on the economy, the two most prominent "nowcasts" — NY and Atlanta Fed — are showing a near-stall in 4th quarter growth, 0.4 and 0.3 % respectively. Could be wrong, but startling https://t.co/s6KvAdeVJc https://t.co/4cV5B7tbzU — PolitiTweet.org

She'll no doubt take some cheap shots from both left and right — Sanders supporters claiming that she's failed their purity test, Buttigieg et al claiming that somehow or other she's still too big-government. But it looks pretty smart to many who take this stuff seriously 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

Yes. Warren is setting M4A as a goal, but trying to provide a lot of quick benefits that don't depend on getting M4A through. It's more of a stepping-stone plan than a transition plan — which is actually a very good idea 1/ — PolitiTweet.org

The idea then is that three years later — ie after the midterms — a lot fewer people would fear losing private insurance, a lot more have had good experiences with public insurance. Still a tough climb, but much less Green Lanternism 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

This new initiative from Warren looks much more workable politically than immediate transition to single-payer. If she wins (and Dems take the Senate), the immediate plan is for a sort of expanded ACA plus public option 1/ https://t.co/XtGxxjx11U — PolitiTweet.org
