Monitoramento do Pix vira meme nas redes sociais
A Receita Federal decidiu monitorar transações financeiras acima de R$ 5 mil realizadas por meio de Pix e cartões de crédito.

When New Jersey Hiked Minimum Wages, Fast Food Prices Rose
As New Jersey ratcheted up its minimum wage on three occasions between 2019 and 2021, fast-food restaurants in the state responded by hiking menu prices to compensate.

California’s Fire Catastrophe Is Largely a Result of Bad Government Policies
In the weeks, months, and years to come, there will be plenty of blame to share for the lapses that let the California wildfires of 2025 get so out of hand, costing lives and tens of billions of dollars. The fact that I wrote “of 2025” to distinguish these fires from other outbreaks should make it clear that these fires are anything but unprecedented, meaning that they should have been anticipated and their causes addressed. That they weren’t […]
