AngelouEconomics in “The Economist”
May 16, 2013
We were honored to have our our founder and patriarch, Angelos Angelou, sought for input on an article in "The Economist" magazine. It is a piece on the effectiveness and necessity of subsidies, tax breaks, and land grants to lure economic development and job creation.
The reference is to an AngelouEconomics comprehensive analysis conducted in 2012 that demonstrated that there is far less evidence that subsidies solidify economic growth or development.
