Noahpinion

Economics and policy, argued in public.

Substack Politics Weekly Updated Aug 2026

About

Noahpinion is economist Noah Smith's running argument with the discourse: an opinionated, well-sourced take on macroeconomics, technology, and policy, published often enough to feel more like an ongoing conversation than a static digest. He'll change his mind in public, and he'll publish a dense technical post right next to a quick reaction to the day's news.

The value isn't really any single post. It's following an economist think out loud, charts and citations included, pushing back on ideas he thinks are lazy or wrong. Readers who want their economics opinionated but grounded in actual data tend to stick around.
