• Schooling, Inequality and Government Policy

  Staff Working Paper 2007-12 Oleksiy Kryvtsov, Alexander Ueberfeldt

  This paper asks: What is the effect of government policy on output and inequality in an environment with education and labor-supply decisions? The answer is given in a general equilibrium model, consistent with the post 1960s facts on male wage inequality and labor supply in the U.S. In the model, education and labor-supply decisions depend on progressive income taxation, the education system, the social security system, and technology-driven wage differentials.
