(Forgive me for posting this...Dear Prof. Mulligan,<br /><br />(Forgive me for posting this; I tried emailing, but it looks like your inbox is full.) <br /><br />I liked your recent economix blog post on war costs. I'm a big fan. I recently put out an NBER wp that looks at historical war costs and reports that between a half and a third of the present value of costs are long-lived payments to veterans and survivors, and that the half-lives of payments have averaged 30 years.<br /><br />http://www.nber.org/papers/w16108<br /><br />One of the big questions this raised in my mind was what the broader macro effects of war spending really was, since it's clearly not (or at least, no longer) a temporary shock as in the standard textbook model.<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />Ryan Edwards<br />redwards@qc.cuny.eduRyan Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02344472184165692395noreply@blogger.com
