Episode 30 - SPOILER Review: Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Part One (2023)Audio recorded on September 25, 2023Strikes updates: 1) There is a tentative deal in place for the full WGA union to vote on! Starting on Wednesday September 27th, the WGA can resume work. Ratification of the new 3 year deal is expected to happen very soon. 2) As of September 25th, we are almost 2.5 months (73 days) into the ongoing strike between SAG-AFTRA (acting union) and the AMPTP (body representing the studios)Here we go! This is the movie for 2023 that I was waiting for. I was so amped and ready for this movie by the time it was released. It did not disappoint. Today's episode is a spoiler review episode for the summer blockbuster “Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning - Part One”. Ethan Hunt and the IMF are back for this latest chapter.I have said it before and I will say it again, Director Christopher McQuarrie is the reason why I get so excited for the Mission Impossible movies. He has been actively involved going back to the 4th movie, “Ghost Protocol”. McQuarrie and Cruise make a fantastic creative team. This 7th installment of the franchise has a ridiculous (in a good way) cast - Tom Cruise, Hayley Atwell (awesome addition), Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames, Vanessa Kirby, Esai Morales (Ozark), Cary Elwes, Henry Czerny (Kittridge is back!) - I mean come on! Amazing cast. In typical mission fashion there are amazing stunts, fantastic locations and another thrill-delivering soundtrack by returning Composer Lorne Balfe. The movie is a ride and engages you by making you care with a pretty good emotional story too like with the 6th movie, “Fallout”.“Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning - Part One” is available for digital purchase (and hopefully to rent too) on October 10th. In the podcast episode I mentioned to skip renting and just move on to buying it (Paramount is not paying me). That's how enthusiastic I am for this movie.Enjoy the movie and thanks for listening. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit sohrabsmovieq.substack.com

Australia has been demonetizing its currency for years. Now, Macquarie Bank, Australia's 5th largest bank with a market cap of 69 billion dollars and over a million customers is making all transactions digital, phasing out cash, check and phone payments in 2024. 2024 is also the year countless CBDCs are to be released worldwide by different governments. The IMF said back in 2018 that they expect many banks and nations in general to cut out cash by 2025. Mainstream media in Australia has reported in recent days that Australia will be functionally cashless by 2025 and entirely cashless by 2030. This also completely fits into the World Economic Forum's goal of a cashless world in 2030. If we do nothing about this today, we will without a doubt face the dire, dystopian consequences later.

A functioning economy provides people with access to credit, insurance, and, among other things, investment opportunities. But what happens in poor communities where they are landless and have no wealth? Eliana La Ferrara says the social structure within those communities offers the collateral they need to make the economy work. La Ferrara is a Professor of Public Policy at Harvard Kennedy School and an award-winning economist whose work has helped us understand how the economics of the poor are deeply interwoven into the social fabric and norms of their communities. Journalist Rhoda Metcalfe sat down with La Ferrara to discuss her work in Africa, and how she came to focus on development issues that are often overlooked. The interview is part of the IMF series on extraordinary Women in Economics. Transcript: https://bit.ly/3ZwnH6k

We see the move for central banking digital currencies. We see the integration happening between the Bank for International Settlements, the central banks, and then to the intermediate central bank and the facilitating institutions like the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank out of DC openly talking about this stuff now is no longer conspiracy theory, it's conspiracy fact headed our way.   There is a report that was prepared by the IMF, the International Monetary Fund, presented to the executive board in an informal session on April, April 7th of 2023.  The level of global interest in central bank digital currencies CBDCs is unprecedented. Retail CBDC issuance is being explored in over 100 countries. That's over 50% of the nations on the planet. It is limited, but it won't be much longer because remember, this was in April. And let me just explain to the listeners just how far this has come. Since April of 2023, Ripple (XRP) had in February this year, three countries that had signed on to be able to have Ripple be the transactional platform for central bank digital currencies or a centralized digital token. Two months ago, Ripple announced they had 30 countries. Two weeks ago, they have three and they have another 70 countries waiting to get on their platform sometime between now and middle to the end of next year.    The IMF wants to monitor and advise on all digital money developments for all of its members. What they're saying is the IMF will be the mother ship all other central banks as well as the Bank of International Settlements. The March of 2018 whitepaper, the BIS document, clearly outlines the globalization of the CBDCs among all the central bank members who all have to clear through BIS. This document clearly has said they will control money transfers in over 100 countries, over 50 to 60% of the nations. But the 100 countries, they're talking about control around 85% of all money transfers.

Hosts Kenny and Mike discuss and spot faith reflected in the lastest Mission Impossible film, Dead Reckoning. Starring Tom Cruise and directed by Christopher McQuarrie, Ethan Hunt (Cruise) and his IMF team must track down a device that threatens political and civil stability throughout the world. Ving Rhames and Simon Pegg reprise their rolls as IMF members Luther Stickell and Benji Dunn. Henry Czerny also reprises his roll as Agent Eugene Kittridge from the original MI as well as Michelle Monaghan reprises her roll as Julia Meade. Vanessa Kirby, Esai Morales, and Hayley Atwell also co-star.  Faith Issues Spotted: Forgiveness and Peace: The importance of dealing productively with pain, loss, anger and guilt, rather than ignoring or burying those feelings and experiences.  As depicted in the film, Ethan's failure to process his grief, anger, and guilt surrounding losses of persons close to him earlier in his life and career have had a negative impact on him. In the course of the film he is made more vulernable through his carrying that pain and desire for revenge. Carrying and allowing anger, guilt and other emotions to build up can make one susceptible to damaging one's health, career and relationships. Christian faith, and the promise and hope of redemption and new life can assist in working through such pain, anger, and guilt. In Romans 8 Paul teaches that current suffering and trials cannot compare to the goodness of the life to come in God's Kingdom, that God works for Good in all things, and that nothing can separate one from the love of God in Christ. God's love and peace can help persons move through pain and struggle including the power to seek to offer forgiveness instead of resentment or revenge.   Jesus and Paul also calls for followers to love and forgive others rather than live with anger and resentment. Matthew 5 & 22, Romans 12 Living out of Faith Rather Than Fear: Related to this is not living and acting from a place of fear, especially in the midst of changing times and circumstances beyond one's control. Acting from and through fear leads to behavior that accepts negative means to be justified by perceived "good ends." Faith in  God, who is a God of love who works for our good, even in the midst of struggle, helps one live in a place of faith and peace.  Temptation to Use Gifts and Power for Good: The tempation to exploit gifts and power in negative ways rather than use them for good. Technology has emense power that can be used for the benefit of an individual or society, or be exploited an used for harm. In the film a technology that could be used for great good in society is in danger of being used to cause great harm and bring power to an individual or group / nation. The pursuit of the technology becomes desperate with the nations and groups willing to do anything to secure it for their own use. This theme was also reflected in the film Oppenheimer.  Technology can be used in less dramatic but still damaging ways. The internet is a tool that can be used to lear and develop or hurt other or even waste time and opportunity for personal growth and development. As persons of faith, Christ calls followers to pursue rigtheousness and the good including love for others, including one's enemies.

Fifty years after Salvador Allende was ousted, might his greatest legacy be his battle with the emerging tech giants?On 1 August 1973, a seemingly mundane diplomatic summit took place in Lima, Peru. But there was nothing mundane about its revolutionary agenda. The attendees – diplomats from Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru – aspired to create a more just technological world order, one that might have prevented the future dominance of Silicon Valley. As the Chilean foreign minister lamented even then: “500 multinational corporations control 90 per cent of the world's productive technology”. Could a new international institution - a tech equivalent of the IMF - ensure that developing countries had access to all the benefits of technological progress? Six weeks later, Salvador Allende's government was toppled, paving the way for General Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship of Chile. In this week's audio long read, the author and podcaster Evgeny Morozov considers Allende's legacy. Often viewed as a tragic but hapless figure, his government in fact oversaw a number of radical and utopian initiatives - many of them to do with technology. Might Chile under Allende have evolved into the South Korea or Taiwan of South America?Read by Catharine Hughes and written by Evgeny Morozov, who hosts The Santiago Boys: the Tech World that Might Have Been podcast series.

In 2001, Goldman Sachs economist Jim O'Neill coined the term “BRIC” to describe the fast-growing economies that he predicted would collectively dominate the global economy by 2050. The BRIC countries he was referring to were Brazil, Russia, India, and China. After a series of high-level meetings that included officials from the four countries, the BRIC grouping was founded in 2009. The following year, South Africa joined, and the name became “BRICS”. Last month, the fifteenth BRICS summit was held in Johannesburg. In addition to the leaders of the five core countries, representatives from more than 60 countries attended, and six were officially invited to join the club: Argentina, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.How does the BRICS serve China's foreign policy objectives? And is this expansion a major win for Xi Jinping? Is BRICS likely to become a global grouping of authoritarian countries that poses a challenge to the G-7 group of democracies – and is that what Beijing wants? To discuss these topics and more, host Bonnie Glaser is joined by Colleen Cottle, deputy director of the Atlantic Council's Global China Hub. Prior to joining the Atlantic Council, she spent over a dozen years at the Central Intelligence Agency where she worked on East and South Asia.  Timestamps[01:45] What has BRICS achieved? [05:33] China Driving the BRICS Agenda[08:35] Where does BRICS fit into China's foreign policy agenda? [10:53] Why has BRICS refrained from endorsing BRI?[12:53] Outcomes of Johannesburg Summit[15:18] Criteria for Expanding BRICS Membership[18:19] Potential for BRICS Disrupting the International Order[23:52] China as a Developing Country[26:56] Will we see any breakthroughs with BRICS?

Credit cards that offer rewards like travel discounts seem a good idea, but rewards cards can be costly for anyone who keeps a running balance. So should there be rules around who gets one? IMF economist Andrea Presbitero is coauthor of a study that looks at the distributional impact of rewards cards. In this podcast, Presbitero says while the high interest rates and penalties associated with these cards can widen wealth inequality, limiting access is not the answer.

In this week's Frankly, Nate reacts to recent analysis by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) critical of 2022 subsidies to fossil fuel. These subsidies - by IMF math totalling $7+ trillion - are not what they seem, resulting in widespread confusion on what is really going on.  By peeling back the layers of the onion on these oft-misunderstood benefits - Nate outlines what comprises these fossil fuel subsidies, who receives them, the purpose they serve, and who benefits from them (spoiler alert - we ALL do). How do these subsidies fit into the larger story of the huge energy surplus that fossil fuels have provided? What will it mean for societies when the subsidy that is fossil fuels goes away? Will we be prepared when the externalities - paid for in these subsidies - catch up with us and we need to learn to live with the aftermath of the Carbon Pulse?

Dr. Asoka Bandarage is an adjunct professor at the California Institute for Integral Studies and the author of a new book, Crisis in Sri Lanka and the World. Sri Lanka has had a minuscule carbon footprint, and yet the country is particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change, coastal erosion, and flooding. She discusses the convergence of existential climate and debt crises in Sri Lanka, the latter resulting from IMF debt restructuring and the lack of a globally coordinated multilateral sovereign debt mechanism that places traditional and private lenders on an equal footing.

One of our biggest pet peeves on this show is when totally made up stories become conventional wisdom, when fake facts become facts through sheer media repetition. One of the most egregious examples of that is the claim that everyone wanted to fire the Ukrainian prosecutor who was investigating Hunter Biden's corrupt energy firm Burisma. Anyone who points out the incredibly convenient coincidence that former Vice President Joe Biden got the prosecutor fired immediately after Burisma told Hunter that he needed to be fired, is immediately met with the same excuse: That excuse is that everyone wanted the prosecutor fired, the EU, the World Bank, the IMF, the EBRD, everyone. Joe Biden was just following the lead from all these esteemed institutions. But is there any evidence for this? We take a deep dive to try and find evidence, any evidence, that these international institutions wanted to fire the Ukrainian prosecutor. ⭕️ Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV

We don't shy away from the harsh realities, exploring the British Empire's legacy of intentional famines and their role in the artificial division of African nations. Matthew also brings to light the American Civil War's connections to a British divide and conquer strategy.Ready to get your mind buzzing about the future of global finance and trade? Our conversation dives into the value of money, the prospects of emerging technologies and improved water availability, and how the African Free Trade Agreement could boost the continent.

Join us on a journey with Alex Gladstein, Chief Strategy Officer of the Human Rights Foundation, as we unlock the massive potential of Bitcoin in the fight against monetary repression and the quest for freedom. Gladstein takes us into a world where governments manipulate money systems to oppress citizens and paints a vivid picture of how Bitcoin is becoming a beacon of hope for modern-day freedom fighters. With insights from his book, "Hidden Repression", he peels back the layers of the dollar system's history and its role in causing global suffering. This compelling narrative promises to leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about global finance.We then navigate the winding roads of international financial institution evolution, scrutinizing the Bretton Woods system, World Bank, and IMF. We examine their shifting objectives post-colonialism, and the creation of a financial bubble due to loan systems in the 70s and 80s. The cycle of debt sparked by leaders borrowing without public consent and its impact on developing nations is startling. But could Bitcoin be the master key enabling escape from these oppressive regimes? We engage in this intriguing discussion, weighing the coexistence of utility and momentum mentalities.As we venture further, we delve into Bitcoin's growing influence on freedom movements and its adoption in countries battling monetary repression. Gladstein recounts his time in El Salvador, sharing insights on the government's endeavor to harness Bitcoin's power and build a Bitcoin-compatible infrastructure. We also consider the implications of a Bitcoin standard on the United States and other nations, in particular, the pivotal dollar-oil dynamic and its significance to Bitcoin's growth. This rich conversation explores the potential advantages for democracy and grapples with the moral complexities of the United States' relationship with Saudi Arabia. So tune in, and let's explore the uncharted territories of Bitcoin, financial repression, and freedom.ANTICIPATE STOCK MARKET CRASHES, CORRECTIONS, AND BEAR MARKETS WITH AWARD WINNING RESEARCH.

Nhất là khi tỷ giá đồng Rúp tăng vọt chưa từng có so với đồng USD, sự hiệu quả của các lệnh trừng phạt còn được mổ xẻ mạnh mẽ hơn. Tuy nhiên, khi tỷ giá đồng nội tệ tăng phi mã một cách không kiểm soát sẽ gây ra nhiều hệ quả tiêu cực. Đó là nhận định của tác giả trantuanst22 trong bài viết "Căn bệnh Hà Lan" và đồng Rúp tăng vọt được đăng tải trên Spiderum. Phân tích của tác giả dựa trên mô hình kinh tế học “Căn bệnh Hà Lan” do Warner Max Corden và J. Peter Neary đề xuất. Bài viết được chia sẻ vào tháng 6 năm 2021, khi Nga hứng chịu hơn 13.000 biện pháp hạn chế của phương Tây. Tuy nhiên, GDP của Nga chỉ giảm 2,1% trong năm 2022 và thậm chí Quỹ Tiền tệ Quốc tế (IMF) dự báo kinh tế Nga có thể tăng trưởng trong năm 2023. Tuy nền kinh tế Nga ghi nhận những kết quả tốt hơn dự kiến, cũng không thể phủ nhận được tác động của các biện pháp trừng phạt đã gây tổn hại không nhỏ tới kinh tế Nga. Bài viết của tác giả trantuanst22 sẽ khái quát được phần nào sự thay đổi của nền kinh tế nước này trong thời kỳ căng thẳng ấy. __ Tìm hiểu thêm về cuốn sách Chuyện người chuyện ngỗng của tác giả trẻ Vũ Hoàng Long tại đây: https://shope.ee/9pB56J0F6Y Ghé Nhà sách Spiderum trên SHOPEE ngay thôi các bạn ơi: https://shope.ee/503HSwXlEB __ Cùng Spiderum hóng các cuộc hội thoại thú vị, nhiều kiến thức bổ ích trên kênh Talk Sâu tại đây nhé: https://b.link/talksau Cùng lắng nghe những câu chuyện về thế giới nghề nghiệp cùng podcast Người Trong Muôn Nghề tại đây: https://b.link/NTMN-Podcast ______________ Bài viết: "Căn bệnh Hà Lan" và đồng Rúp tăng vọt.

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program is one of the largest poverty alleviation programs in the United States and provides help to around 14% of the US population. Since 1996, the program has required able-bodied adults without dependents to work in order to receive food assistance. Proponents of work requirements say it prevents government dependency. Critics, however, argue work requirements push out the people who need food assistance the most. Today we'll talk with two economists about the impact of SNAP work requirements: University of Rochester's Elena Prager. and Adam Leive at the University of California, Berkeley. Interview Summary   You two were part of a research team that also included economists from MIT, Harvard, and the University of Maryland and recently published an analysis of the effects of SNAP work requirements in the American Economic Journal: Economic Policy. Adam, before we jump into the study, would you tell our listeners what SNAP work requirements are and how proponents and critics see them?   Adam -  Sure. So, SNAP's work requirements dictate that some recipients must be working, training, or volunteering to receive benefits for more than a few months. So the policy is historically applied to childless adults who are younger than 50 and don't have a disability, and as you mentioned, this group is often referred to as able-bodied adults without dependents and called by their acronym ABAWDs.   So, the work requirement stipulates that ABAWDs must be working 80 hours per month, participating in a qualifying training program or volunteering. If they don't satisfy that requirement, then they're only entitled to three months of SNAP benefits within a three-year period. Counties with high rates of unemployment may temporarily be granted exemptions from the policy by USDA's Food and Nutrition Services as well. So in terms of kind of the proponents and opponents of the policy, those in favor of work requirements are concerned that providing government benefits discourages work. These people generally believe that those recipients of government assistance should work as a condition for that help. Their argument for the policy is that by incentivizing work, people will develop a stronger attachment to the labor market. Eventually they become self-sufficient, and they can earn enough to get by without the government assistance.   By contrast, the critics see work requirements as a policy that prevents people who are economically vulnerable from receiving food assistance, and it prevents them from accessing assistance in times when they need it the most. So, the opponents argue that if the reason people are not working is something other than the economic incentives of the policy, then the work requirements are really just going to cut people's benefits without getting more people to work. It's worth noting that work requirements have long been contentious and most recently were the main issue in the debt ceiling debate. So as part of that compromise, the SNAP work requirements will gradually be applied to ABAWDs up to age 55, but additional groups will now be exempt from the requirement, including veterans, the homeless, and those who are 18 to 24 who were previously in foster care.   I really appreciate how you've brought in the changes to the rules around work requirements under the Inflation Reduction Act. This is going to be an important policy discussion as we move forward. It's interesting, particularly the exemption for individuals who are unhoused because of the work that shows up in the paper that you all have. So Elena, let's now turn to you. How did you study the effect of work requirements in this paper?   Elena - As you might imagine, studying the effect of work requirements on SNAP recipients and potential recipients is actually a little bit tricky. You have to be able to find comparable groups of people, some of whom face work requirements in SNAP and some of whom don't, but are otherwise similar enough to one another that it would make sense to compare their employment trajectories and their use of SNAP. Generally speaking, you don't just directly want to make that comparison across people to whom work requirements apply versus people to whom work requirements don't apply in SNAP because they're pretty different groups. The ones who face work requirements tend to be younger, tend to not have disabilities, and tend to not have dependents like children, especially, in the household. As you can imagine, if you look at the folks who are exempted from work requirements under typical SNAP rules, there are lots of reasons why they may be less likely to hold a job than the ones who do face work requirements. They may be older, or they may be disabled. So, you can't just attribute that difference to the work requirements themselves, which means in order to study the effect of the work requirements, you have to go looking for a context where the people who face them and don't face them are much more similar to one another than that.   What we ended up doing is looking at essentially the same set of people as work requirements policies changed over time. In fact, what you end up doing is comparing the same person before work requirements exist to the same person after work requirements exist. Now, you might say, "Okay, but work requirements have been part of SNAP for decades. Where did you find a time when they didn't exist?" The answer is that temporarily, many states suspended work requirements for a few years starting in the Great Recession when the job market was very weak and it was just considered too hard for people to find jobs even if they were trying. States were attempting not to be punitive during a very difficult job market. One of those states was Virginia, and so we got very detailed data on both SNAP use and employment and earnings from employment from the State of Virginia. Then we were able to trace what happened to SNAP recipients when that work requirements suspension expired in the fall of 2013. Virginia then put work requirements back into SNAP, which meant suddenly the same people who could use SNAP without work requirements just a month before were facing work requirements newly. We could compare how their employment responses changed to the changes of the employment responses of other groups who continued to be exempt from work requirements, for example, because they were just a little bit older than 50 when work requirements came back. We followed both of those age groups, comparing whether they were working and whether they were getting SNAP for several months and years after work requirements were reintroduced by the State of Virginia. That allowed us to both solve this problem that it's generally very hard to make comparisons across groups. In this way we were comparing sort of across groups but also within the same person.   In addition, the nice thing about designing the study this way is that we got to study not just those people who got on SNAP knowing that they would face work requirements and so thinking it was worth all the administrative hassle to get on SNAP in the first place because they expected to be able to meet the work requirements and continue to receive SNAP. But we were also able to study those people who knew at the time that they got on SNAP that they probably wouldn't be able to meet work requirements if those work requirements existed. But because work requirements were suspended at the time, that actually didn't discourage them from signing up in the first place because they knew that they were going to be able to stay on SNAP for a longer time while work requirements continued to be suspended.   Great, thank you. I realize this is a critical part of your study to be able to find the exact cohort and the fact that you were able to follow those individuals over a period of time compared to what some other studies have done, where they look at the sort of a sample of people that changes on an annual basis or that's more cross-sectional. I really appreciate the great care that you all put in to discerning who that sample should be, and that offers up really clean ways of understanding the effect of a ABAWD work requirements, so thank you for that. Adam, what did your research show about who's right about the effect of work requirements? Can you help us understand that debate a little bit more carefully given the findings of your results.   Adam - Let me begin by kind of summarizing our main results. So, we found no evidence that work requirements led more people to work. The same number of SNAP recipients worked whether work requirements were in effect or whether they were not, and the large size of the administrative data that we had access to allowed us to be very confident from a statistical perspective that any effect on employment that's positive is likely to be extremely small.   We also didn't find that earnings increased on average either. However, what we did see was a substantial drop in the number of ABAWDs enrolled in SNAP. We found that work requirements cut enrollment by more than half among ABAWDs, and this is a dramatic reduction in food assistance. This drop in SNAP enrollment was largely driven by people who were already on the program when the work requirements turned back on in 2013, as Elena was just describing, but we also found that many people who were newly enrolled exited the program sooner, and then some potential SNAP recipients did not enroll at all compared to what we would've expected in a world without work requirements. So, putting all of that evidence together, overall we found no evidence in support of the arguments that are made by those who favor work requirements.   Great, thank you. Elena, do work requirements have any other effects on potential SNAP recipients?   Elena - Well, Adam already covered the two primary study outcomes that we looked at and that policymakers usually refer to, which is are people staying on SNAP and continuing to receive benefits and are people working? But in principle separate from just getting a larger number or a larger fraction of people working, economic theory might predict that work requirements could increase income, either through the amount of work or the hourly wages among the SNAP recipients who were going to be working anyway, right? We find no effect on who's working, in other words, how many people are working. But in principle you might say, "Okay, maybe those who were going to be working anyway are now more attached to the labor force. They're working more hours or more weeks out of the year than they would've been absent the work requirements." As Adam said, we actually on average did not find evidence that work requirements increased incomes, and so we can't really say that work requirements improved labor force attachment on this dimension. We ran this analysis lots of different ways, and in the vast majority of our analysis versions, we found just no change in income. But if you were very motivated to cherry pick a couple of analyses in support of work requirements and ignore the totality of the evidence in the paper, then you can find a couple of versions where there's sort of suggestive evidence that a small fraction of potential SNAP recipients, maybe something like 10 to 15%, might have had some income increases that could be attributable to work requirements.   Now, I say that you would have to ignore the totality of evidence in the rest of the paper if you wanted to run with those results because it really only was a couple out of very many analyses, and the results even there were quite weak, especially compared to the very stark findings of no effect on whether people are working and very large negative effects on people's continued SNAP receipt.   Elena, thank you for that. Do you see any differences by subgroups? I realize that's not maybe a part of the paper as it's written, but knowing that different subgroups have greater unemployment, do you see any differences, say among racial or ethnic lines or along gender lines?   Elena - Well, we essentially couldn't find effects on whether people were working as a result of work requirements for any subgroup. We are somewhat limited in our ability to do subgroup analyses because of issues like sample size and statistical power, but to the extent that we were able to cut the data, we didn't see impacts on whether people were working for any of these subgroups, which is actually very different from what we see with people losing access to SNAP. So, we saw quite a large disproportionate impact on use of SNAP, meaning people's ability to stay on the program and continue to receive food assistance for individuals with a history of homelessness. Further, here was some suggestive evidence of disparate impacts along racial lines, but that wasn't statistically strong enough for me to feel comfortable claiming anything about it.   Adam, why do you think work requirements do not have much of an impact on work?   Adam - Our results suggest that the SNAP recipients that we studied likely face other barriers that are more important for employment than the work requirements policy itself. As Elena just mentioned, we found this disproportionate effect in terms of people who lack stable housing, and that can make it really difficult to hold down a job, and to be able to apply for jobs. People may also not have reliable or affordable transportation. So, without those things, you can see how it'd be very difficult for people to maintain gainful employment. Another possibility is that people's hours may fluctuate in ways that make them ineligible in terms of meeting the requirements of 80 hours a month, and so several of those explanations come from other studies of enrollees in different safety net programs in various states. One great thing about the data we had is that we could track people's earnings and participation in SNAP over a long period of time, but we don't see information on how many hours they worked, for example, or what their transportation options were. Those are issues, though, that many others have noted as being important in different contexts, both using quantitative studies as well as more qualitative studies. We think this is something that future research should really focus much more on - how to quantify the importance of those different barriers that ABAWDs likely face, and then trying to figure out how to best design solutions that address them.   This does make me think about another potential issue, and that's the benefits cliff. So, if someone is working and there is an increase in their wages, there actually could be a drop in their benefits that they receive from SNAP, and that could make this story a lot more complicated. Elena, I do have this question for you. How did you handle individuals who dropped out of having the ABAWD status, say if they had children or if a disability came up? Was this an important factor in evaluating that subpopulation?   Elena - For the validity of the study results, it was very important for us to keep a consistent sample throughout the time period that we were evaluating these outcomes over. This meant that if people were eligible for our sample definition at the beginning, then we kept them in the sample for the rest of the time period. That means that there were some people who dropped out of ABAWD status for various reasons, and actually, if I recall correctly, and Adam can jump in if this is not right, the most common way that people in the sample dropped out of ABAWD status is by having a newly documented disability. Our understanding is that what's happening with those folks is that many of them might have been eligible for a disability documentation that would've made them exempt from work requirements even during the time that Virginia had suspended work requirements. But there was essentially no point in their going through the hassle and their caseworkers going through the hassle of getting that documentation because the work requirements didn't apply to them anyway. So, when the work requirements came back, some at least of those folks got their disabilities officially documented so that they were, again, exempted from work requirements. This illustrates why it's important for us to keep a consistent sample before and after the work requirements come back, because we want to make sure that we're not sort of changing who's in the comparison group, right? You don't want apples to suddenly turn into oranges halfway through your study period.   Adam - Elena's description was exactly right, and in terms of the magnitudes of that response - in terms of people who were exempt for a reason other than their age - it basically doubled the proportion of people who dropped out of ABAWD status. On average, about 10% of people had some exemption besides age from ABAWD status, and then we saw that the policy increased that by 5.6 percentage points, so a pretty large relative change.   Bios   Elena Prager is an assistant professor at the University of Rochester's Simon Business School.

The former director of the IMF, Eugene Kittridge, played by Henry Czerny, captured our imagination in the first "Mission: Impossible" film. Now, he's back for “Dead Reckoning Part One” and we couldn't be more thrilled. Henry talks about his acting origins, his similar role in “Clear and Present Danger” and why he thought he'd never be back in the series. Also, we have a bonus interview with Pom Klementieff and Vanessa Kirby from the junket in Rome (in June). See “Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One” only in theatres. Catch up on the entire "Mission: Impossible" film series on Paramount+. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

TMBS 110 aired on October 16th, 2019 Episode summary: Tonight, Ryan Grim (@RyanGrim), Washington Bureau Chief of the Intercept and author of We've Got People, joins us to break down the Dem debate, Bernie vs. Warren. Bernie vs. IMF austerity, Haiti and Ecuador protests, remembering Thomas Sankara, Darth Trump, Bernie hits Biden, and Kamala's weird "ban Trump from twitter" gambit.
