Emre Ozdenoren @emreozdenoren.bsky.social · 06/04/2025The most difficult part of moving from a protectionist trade environment to one without trade barriers is the transition where industries that can’t compete lay off workers. But once that transition is complete, going back to protectionism won’t bring those jobs back. 141
Emre Ozdenoren @emreozdenoren.bsky.social · 15/03/2025Boeing and Intel each had one major competitor (AirBus and TSMC). They are both losing market share to competition. And it has little to do with trade barriers. Instead of focusing on tariffs, government should ask why these big manufacturers are losing out to competitors. 050

Emre Ozdenoren @emreozdenoren.bsky.social · 22/12/2024Deadweight loss as a terminology is confusing. Especially when talking about externalities where one compares the traditional dwl (resulting from loss of cs and ps) with the loss to society caused by the externality. And then we call the difference dwl from the externality. 110
