☆ Office Apocalypse, New Expenses Are Wrecking Big Cities' Budgets
  + stars: | 2024-04-14 | by ( Emily Stewart | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +9 min
Across the country, from Denver and Seattle to Washington, DC, and New York, cities are deciphering whether to slash their budgets. (Most states' fiscal years run from July 1 to June 30.) States and cities are facing pressure from societal issues that will weigh on tax revenue and increase costs for years to come. Aging populations mean a smaller percentage of the population that's of working age, putting downward pressure on tax revenue. But as federal funds have petered out, structural problems have resurfaced.

☆ Most Americans Feel They Pay Too Much in Taxes, AP-NORC Poll Finds
  + stars: | 2024-01-28 | by ( Associated Press | Jan. | At A.M. | ) www.usnews.com   time to read: +6 min
Two-thirds of U.S. taxpayers say they spend “too much” on federal income taxes, as tax season begins. About 7 in 10 say the same about local property taxes, while roughly 6 in 10 feel that way about state sales tax. Generally speaking, Republicans are more likely than Democrats to view taxes as unfair, to say they are paying too much in taxes, and to see taxes as a poor value. “We tend to think of local government as less partisan.”Among those who pay federal income taxes, half say they would prefer having fewer government services if it meant reducing their bill. About one-quarter say they grasp the calculations for federal income tax.

☆ The number of people doing gig work on apps like Uber and DoorDash more than doubled during the pandemic
  + stars: | 2023-07-20 | by ( Juliana Kaplan | Madison Hoff | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
The number of people doing platform gig work like deliveries on apps in the US grew by over 150% during the pandemic. The researchers used tax data from 90 gig economy platforms and apps for their analysis. "COVID was a watershed moment for a particular type of platform gig work, which is delivery work," Koustas said. Gig workers became younger and more female; 44% of transportation and delivery platform workers were female by 2021, per the working paper. While platform gig work climbed during the pandemic, a research brief about the working paper results states that other contract and freelance work fell during COVID.

☆ Premarket Stocks: Who do we blame for the fall of SVB?
  + stars: | 2023-03-16 | by ( Nicole Goodkind | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +8 min
Blame the Fed: SVB’s downfall was largely caused by a record $42 billion bank run that left the bank in desperate need of cash. But the Fed’s rate hikes had undermined the value of bonds, a critical source of capital for SVB. “The Federal Reserve failed as a bank supervisor,” he wrote. On Capitol Hill, frequent Fed critic Sen. Elizabeth Warren has been quick to blame Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell for a lack of oversight. Blame SVB: Others say the blame should be placed on the banks themselves.
☆ Staff shortages make patient surges harder for children’s hospitals – and the situation won’t get better soon
  + stars: | 2022-10-28 | by ( Jen Christensen | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +8 min
“We’re extremely overwhelmed,” said Dr. Rishi Lulla, director of pediatric hematology/oncology at Hasbro Children’s Hospital in Providence, Rhode Island. Seasonal respiratory viruses fill children’s hospitals every year, but the number of beds that are full now is well above the average. Driving much of the current need for beds at children’s hospitals is a spike in cases of RSV, which are 60% higher than at 2021’s peak. Nurse turnover is up 50% across the country since 2019, according to Mark Wietecha, CEO of the Children’s Hospital Association.
