Thread on the failure of the National Academy of Sciences to include a work-disincentive effect in their much cited study promoting the Child Tax Credit. I don’t see how the NAS has a leg to stand on: if they include it for the EITC they should include it for the CTC, no? https://t.co/DcDlaWR5s9

The argument for sponsorship by rich advocacy outfits like Rockefeller is that it’s just like buying an ad in a magazine. But would this panel *even exist* without Rockefeller sponsorship? Would @Punchbowl decide a CTC foe is newsworthy & panelize them even without a sponsor? https://t.co/GdnlqKVoT8
