Issue Areas
Labor Economics – Americans' top concern is jobs, and MI scholars have testified in Congress and written extensively on how to increase employment. Ideas include streamlining regulations; granting residency permits to entrepreneurs
who have a track record of creating jobs in America; and removing the $2,000 tax on employers, effective 2014, who don't offer the right kind of health insurance.
Recession and Recovery – Although the recession ended in June 2009, GDP is growing only at one percent. The unemployment is still above 9 percent, with 44 percent of the unemployed out of work for six months or more. MI scholars are
exploring what went wrong with the $1 trillion "stimulus," and how to move the economy to a stronger growth path.
