To the dismay of some of their Democratic colleagues, Squad members’ reactions to Hamas’ attack included decrying the “cycle of violence” between Israelis and Palestinians and demanding an end to U.S. military assistance to Israel.

    It would also boost the economy and increase wages.

      Boost the economy, sure, but probably not increase wages.

      A Pandemic Ara social safety net would wonders for the economy. It would also increase wages indirectly by increasing what economists call the reservation wage, or the minimum amount a person is willing to work for.

      A pre-Pandemic Era, neoclassical, supply-side policy would almost certainly be nominally good for the economy, but businesses would just increase profits without increasing jobs or raising wages.

        TIL about reservation wage, and it doesn’t have anything to do with Native Americans.
