Heads or Tails to quit a job, how happier are you 6 months after ? Fun paper to illustrate IV, good idea to use it in undergrad econometrics class!
I’ve mentioned this study before. It’s by Levitt and it’s also the kind of study I always think of with him - kind of bizarre, somehow still about economic theory, well identified, extremely creative.

Getting accurate information is key for the success&fairness of public policies, but challenging when administrative capacity is low.
Think about tax registers: most African governments only have reliable info. on the income/wealth of a very small number of individuals. [2/11]

❓How does the discretion of bureaucrats involved in creating the tax register affect the accuracy and equity of the tax roll?
💡Is a rule-based process relying on an algorithm preferable?
This is the question we tackle with
@VictorPouliquen
and Bassirou Sarr. [3/11]

💰💰Tax liabilities in the discretion arm amount to 13 million USD instead of a potential of 32 million USD.
Losses mostly accrue from high-end properties: the 20% most expensive ones face an effective tax rate of 1.7% instead of an expected 8.6% based on the tax code! [7/11]

Switching to an algorithm improves accuracy & seems like a promising way to equitably expand the tax net at scale. We also test a version that can be computed using satellite images only, making it extremely cost-effective.
The administration is interested in scaling-up. [8/11]

"We need more innovative ideas about how best to convey the urgency of the situation"
Civil disobedience helped end British rule in India, the denial of equal rights to African-Americans, and the war in Vietnam. Governments' failure to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions is no less wrong – and is likely to cause far more harm |
