Hugely disappointed in @durbin.senate.gov, TimKaine (who should know better, having nice guyed his way into losing to Trump/Pence), Maggie Hassan, Sen King, @shaheen.senate.gov, and Jacky Rosen.

Good question. You could ask by how much does govt subsidize typical apartments and assume that's the social externality. So *maybe* 20% of value over lifetime. Say 4%/year annualized social cost of 20% = .8%. So maybe a range of .25% to 1.5%. At current rates tax paid >> occupancy, I suspect.

I don't have the years and years it would take to download the series from Fred, but would be interesting to know if he cherrypicked maturities.

Not easy to get fired by Trump for incompetence, but seems like he just waltzed right into it?
