      1. Some personal news: this text I received today told me my unemployment benefits stopped at the end of *last month* In the midst of a pandemic and the worst recession since 1929 It’s not in the US, it’s in France Europe has a robust safety net, but it’s far from perfect

      I might be able to recover a portion of my UI, but it’s not certain And how the heck am I supposed to launch my business or find a job in such troubled times?

    I was supposed to start my first contract for my new business in April but because of the pandemic and delays in local elections in France, it’s somewhat on hold (but probably *not* cancelled, AFAIK)

      I’m not sharing this to complain or rant (I already sent a very clear email to my local MP with my thoughts on this decision by Macron’s government) It’s rather to share the experience of somebody who’s directly impacted by the kind of policies us, economists, help to design
