I was writing about land reform in West Bengal last night and was curious if it had persistent effects on the ownership distribution. So I did what anyone would do, I* wrote an academic paper on it Turns out — yes! 1/

Fascinating paper on where 6000 global elites went to college. Billionaires, CEOs, heads of state, central bankers, etc. In a word: Harvard. Fully 10% of global elites went to Harvard. Elite US schools are over-represented (23% IvyPlus), but nobody comes close to Harvard. 🧵

Got promoted to full professor. I asked my colleague what that meant, and he said "you get to go to the full professor meetings." I asked what they did at the meetings, and he said "we talk about who to promote to full professor."

Policies to keep out unskilled immigrants - but let in the skilled - didn't work in the 1920s (dropbox.com/scl/fi/use60jl…) and won't work today. Here's why:
Kaidi Wu, Ph.D.@kaidi_wu

Americans have no idea how difficult legal immigration is for "high-skilled immigrants". I have 4 degrees incl a PhD. Einstein visa. 250K salary at FAANG. Lived in this country since I was a teenager. I won't be able to obtain citizenship until middle age Guide for Intl PhDs🧵

we first show how democrats and republicans sort into distinctive colleges, majors, occupations, industries, and employers. at each stage of their trajectory through the labor market, democrats and republicans are making different decisions. we can see this in great detail.

Final notes from my reporting in Latino communities during the election: 80% of Latinos are working class. Their experience of the economy the past four years—Covid shutdowns, inflation, gas prices, housing costs—was rough. That puts the incumbent Dems at a disadvantage. 🧵1/9

Important: any ongoing racial depolarization in the electorate is creating *more* polarization on *racial attitudes*. Black and Latino voters who are now voting Republican tend to have conservative views on race and immigration. For example... goodauthority.org/news/america-i…
