Again on stimulus/relief: @Noahpinion makes the argument very cleanly. If you give money to people who lost income, they may spend it or save it. Core point: even if people don’t spend it, it is still a desirable reallocation of financial resources! 1/n

We should stop thinking about the COVID relief effort as primarily a "stimulus" bill. Mostly, it's a form of retroactive social insurance -- making sure that the pandemic doesn't end up leaving a lot of people poorer than before.

Great thread and follow up exchanges. My impression is that cross sectional coefficients often measure well some (appropriately defined) partial equilibrium effect. However, in macro we are eventually interested in effect with full GE adjustment, so model is needed.

Russia says it wants to be paid for its gas in Rubles. What does that mean? Russia is a current account surplus country (black), so it exports more than it imports. Such a surplus country is constantly building financial claims on other countries. That happens in one of 2 ways...

Huge advantage of micro-to-macro approach is that it forces us to "unpack" mechanism for why in our models X moves Y, and if one (partial equilibrium) step of the argument grossly contradicts the cross-sectional evidence, it forces us to think harder
