3 days ago | zeteo.com | Grace Blakeley

Donald Trump’s “big beautiful bill” – passed by House Republicans last month – has beenmarketed as a ‘tax cut for the middle class.’ In fact, it represents another round of handouts for the wealthy.

USAs president Donald Trump har forsøkt å berettige handelskrigen sin ved å appellere til amerikanske arbeidere.

How to Solve a Problem Like Productivity

1 week ago | tribunemag.co.uk | Grace Blakeley

For more than a decade, economists have been scratching their heads over the productivity puzzle afflicting western economies. The issue has been particularly severe in the UK, where productivity stagnated for over a decade following the financial crisis.

Dok ruski rat protiv Ukrajine bjesni na istočnoj granici Evrope, lideri kontinenta konačno su spremni priznati da imaju moć oživjeti svoje posrnule ekonomije. Nakon decenija štednje, spremni su ponovo trošiti – ali ne da bi okončali siromaštvo, ubrzali dekarbonizaciju ili preokrenuli kolaps osnovnih javnih usluga. Umjesto toga, evropska fiskalna vatrena moć usmjerava se na tenkove, rakete i borbene avione.

2 weeks ago | ips-journal.eu | Grace Blakeley

As Russia’s war on Ukraine rages on Europe’s eastern frontier, the continent’s leaders are finally willing to admit they have the power to revive their ailing economies. After decades of austerity, they are ready to spend again – but not to end poverty, accelerate decarbonisation, or reverse the collapse of essential public services. Instead, Europe’s fiscal firepower is being directed toward tanks, missiles, and fighter jets.
The War Economy

The state is back, and it’s building guns. With the Trump administration railing against European ‘freeloading’ on US military spending, European politicians have announced plans to spend billions on rearmament. The US economy has taken a beating as the tech bubble has burst and Trump’s tariffs have raised the spectre of slower growth and higher […] The state is back, and it’s building guns.
