Ricardian Consumers with Keynesian Propensities
This paper examines Ricardian equivalence in a world in which taxes are not lump sum, but are levied on risky labor income.

An important condition for debt neutrality is believed to be the absence of strategic interactions between members of different generations. I use a simple two-period, parent and child ...
