wage subsidy simulator
Interactive simulation of the EIG 80-80 Rule wage subsidy proposal, estimating fiscal and distributional effects for U.S. workers.
This tool simulates the fiscal and distributional effects of the EIG 80-80 Rule wage subsidy proposal. It combines Current Population Survey (CPS) microdata with pre-computed PolicyEngine-US household income schedules to estimate eligibility, gross cost, and safety-net interactions at the individual and population level.
