- #Blundell: 3 general questions re UK: 1.What has happened to living standards and inequality? #LSEBLundell
- #Blundell: 2.Where might we expect tax/welfare reform to have most impact? #LSEBLundell
- #Blundell: emphasis will be on labour market and on personal tax and welfare reforms #LSEBlundell
- #Blundell: To dig a little deeper, three measures have something important to say: Earnings, Incomes, Consumption #LSEBlundell
- #Blundell Earnings: average real hourly wages fell, real wage falls occurred within individuals (1/2) #LSEBlundell
- #Blundell: education premium survived, 'effective' labour supply higher (2/2) #LSEBlundell
- #Blundell Income Growth & Inequality: increased inequality in earnings #LSEBlundell
- #Blundell Two aspects of the tax system: 1 effective taxes on higher incomes 2. Effective taxes for families at the bottom #LSEBlundell
- #Blundell: Inequality in context: since mid-1990s over much of the income distribution inequality is stable #LSEBlundell
- Blundell: but welfare benefit system had to do more work to maintain incomes of individuals & families with low earnings #LSEBlundell
- #Blundell: Consumption: Expenditure falls deeper than in previous recessions- expenditure on consumer nondurables fell most #LSEBlundell
- #Blundell: Prospects for Economy: Younger workers & families acting as if expecting long-run fall in relative living standards #LSEBlundell
- #Blundell: Prospects for Economy: Real wages, productivity (& investment) slow to pick up; most actual falls in real earnings #LSEBlundell
