Source SOCIAL SCIENCE RESEARCH NETWORK Pages 45 Subject 1 ELECTIONS Notes Anthony Fowler and Michele Margolis authors
Survey researchers have long known that Americans fail to meet the democratic ideals of an informed electorate The consequences of this political ignorance however are less clear In two independent settings we experimentally test the effect of political information on citizensrsquo attitudes toward the major parties When uninformed citizens receive political information they systematically shift their political preferences away from the Republican Party and toward the Democrats In contrast to the optimistic claims that political ignorance is compensated through other mechanisms our results suggest that the lack of information in the current American electorate typically produces results that differ from the ideal counterfactual world where all voters are informed

Source INQUIRY Pages 17 Subject 1 HEALTH CARE--LONG-TERM 2 INSURANCE LONG-TERM Notes This paper investigates the effects of privately purchased long-term care insurance (LTCI) on t hree major types of
long-term care services nursing home care paid home care and informal care received from family and friends Using 2002ndash2008 data from the ongoing Health and Retirement Study we analyze the determinants of long-term care utilization simultaneously with the determinants of holding LTCI We find that LTCI has modest effects on the likelihood of using long-term care services For the very frail elderly private LTCI enhances their access to nursing home care For those with moderate disability LTCI makes it more likely that they can remain at home and receive home care services instead of going to a nursing home We find no evidence that formal care substitutes for informal care in the presence of LTCI These findings suggest that if LTCI becomes much more prevalent in the future many older adults will be able to choose the type of long-term care arrangement that best suits their needs

Source SOCIAL SCIENCE RESEARCH NETWORK Pages 45 Subject 1 ELECTIONS Notes Anthony Fowler and Michele Margolis authors
Survey researchers have long known that Americans fail to meet the democratic ideals of an informed electorate The consequences of this political ignorance however are less clear In two independent settings we experimentally test the effect of political information on citizensrsquo attitudes toward the major parties When uninformed citizens receive political information they systematically shift their political preferences away from the Republican Party and toward the Democrats In contrast to the optimistic claims that political ignorance is compensated through other mechanisms our results suggest that the lack of information in the current American electorate typically produces results that differ from the ideal counterfactual world where all voters are informed

Source INQUIRY Pages 17 Subject 1 HEALTH CARE--LONG-TERM 2 INSURANCE LONG-TERM Notes This paper investigates the effects of privately purchased long-term care insurance (LTCI) on t hree major types of
long-term care services nursing home care paid home care and informal care received from family and friends Using 2002ndash2008 data from the ongoing Health and Retirement Study we analyze the determinants of long-term care utilization simultaneously with the determinants of holding LTCI We find that LTCI has modest effects on the likelihood of using long-term care services For the very frail elderly private LTCI enhances their access to nursing home care For those with moderate disability LTCI makes it more likely that they can remain at home and receive home care services instead of going to a nursing home We find no evidence that formal care substitutes for informal care in the presence of LTCI These findings suggest that if LTCI becomes much more prevalent in the future many older adults will be able to choose the type of long-term care arrangement that best suits their needs

Survey researchers have long known that Americans fail to meet the democratic ideals of an informed electorate The consequences of this political ignorance however are less clear In two independent settings we experimentally test the effect of political information on citizensrsquo attitudes toward the major parties When uninformed citizens receive political information they systematically shift their political preferences away from the Republican Party and toward the Democrats In contrast to the optimistic claims that political ignorance is compensated through other mechanisms our results suggest that the lack of information in the current American electorate typically produces results that differ from the ideal counterfactual world where all voters are informed

Source INQUIRY Pages 17 Subject 1 HEALTH CARE--LONG-TERM 2 INSURANCE LONG-TERM Notes This paper investigates the effects of privately purchased long-term care insurance (LTCI) on t hree major types of
long-term care services nursing home care paid home care and informal care received from family and friends Using 2002ndash2008 data from the ongoing Health and Retirement Study we analyze the determinants of long-term care utilization simultaneously with the determinants of holding LTCI We find that LTCI has modest effects on the likelihood of using long-term care services For the very frail elderly private LTCI enhances their access to nursing home care For those with moderate disability LTCI makes it more likely that they can remain at home and receive home care services instead of going to a nursing home We find no evidence that formal care substitutes for informal care in the presence of LTCI These findings suggest that if LTCI becomes much more prevalent in the future many older adults will be able to choose the type of long-term care arrangement that best suits their needs

Survey researchers have long known that Americans fail to meet the democratic ideals of an informed electorate The consequences of this political ignorance however are less clear In two independent settings we experimentally test the effect of political information on citizensrsquo attitudes toward the major parties When uninformed citizens receive political information they systematically shift their political preferences away from the Republican Party and toward the Democrats In contrast to the optimistic claims that political ignorance is compensated through other mechanisms our results suggest that the lack of information in the current American electorate typically produces results that differ from the ideal counterfactual world where all voters are informed

Source INQUIRY Pages 17 Subject 1 HEALTH CARE--LONG-TERM 2 INSURANCE LONG-TERM Notes This paper investigates the effects of privately purchased long-term care insurance (LTCI) on t hree major types of
long-term care services nursing home care paid home care and informal care received from family and friends Using 2002ndash2008 data from the ongoing Health and Retirement Study we analyze the determinants of long-term care utilization simultaneously with the determinants of holding LTCI We find that LTCI has modest effects on the likelihood of using long-term care services For the very frail elderly private LTCI enhances their access to nursing home care For those with moderate disability LTCI makes it more likely that they can remain at home and receive home care services instead of going to a nursing home We find no evidence that formal care substitutes for informal care in the presence of LTCI These findings suggest that if LTCI becomes much more prevalent in the future many older adults will be able to choose the type of long-term care arrangement that best suits their needs

Survey researchers have long known that Americans fail to meet the democratic ideals of an informed electorate The consequences of this political ignorance however are less clear In two independent settings we experimentally test the effect of political information on citizensrsquo attitudes toward the major parties When uninformed citizens receive political information they systematically shift their political preferences away from the Republican Party and toward the Democrats In contrast to the optimistic claims that political ignorance is compensated through other mechanisms our results suggest that the lack of information in the current American electorate typically produces results that differ from the ideal counterfactual world where all voters are informed

Source INQUIRY Pages 17 Subject 1 HEALTH CARE--LONG-TERM 2 INSURANCE LONG-TERM Notes This paper investigates the effects of privately purchased long-term care insurance (LTCI) on t hree major types of
long-term care services nursing home care paid home care and informal care received from family and friends Using 2002ndash2008 data from the ongoing Health and Retirement Study we analyze the determinants of long-term care utilization simultaneously with the determinants of holding LTCI We find that LTCI has modest effects on the likelihood of using long-term care services For the very frail elderly private LTCI enhances their access to nursing home care For those with moderate disability LTCI makes it more likely that they can remain at home and receive home care services instead of going to a nursing home We find no evidence that formal care substitutes for informal care in the presence of LTCI These findings suggest that if LTCI becomes much more prevalent in the future many older adults will be able to choose the type of long-term care arrangement that best suits their needs

Survey researchers have long known that Americans fail to meet the democratic ideals of an informed electorate The consequences of this political ignorance however are less clear In two independent settings we experimentally test the effect of political information on citizensrsquo attitudes toward the major parties When uninformed citizens receive political information they systematically shift their political preferences away from the Republican Party and toward the Democrats In contrast to the optimistic claims that political ignorance is compensated through other mechanisms our results suggest that the lack of information in the current American electorate typically produces results that differ from the ideal counterfactual world where all voters are informed

Source INQUIRY Pages 17 Subject 1 HEALTH CARE--LONG-TERM 2 INSURANCE LONG-TERM Notes This paper investigates the effects of privately purchased long-term care insurance (LTCI) on t hree major types of
long-term care services nursing home care paid home care and informal care received from family and friends Using 2002ndash2008 data from the ongoing Health and Retirement Study we analyze the determinants of long-term care utilization simultaneously with the determinants of holding LTCI We find that LTCI has modest effects on the likelihood of using long-term care services For the very frail elderly private LTCI enhances their access to nursing home care For those with moderate disability LTCI makes it more likely that they can remain at home and receive home care services instead of going to a nursing home We find no evidence that formal care substitutes for informal care in the presence of LTCI These findings suggest that if LTCI becomes much more prevalent in the future many older adults will be able to choose the type of long-term care arrangement that best suits their needs

Source SOCIAL SCIENCE RESEARCH NETWORK Pages 45 Subject 1 ELECTIONS Notes Anthony Fowler and Michele Margolis authors
Survey researchers have long known that Americans fail to meet the democratic ideals of an informed electorate The consequences of this political ignorance however are less clear In two independent settings we experimentally test the effect of political information on citizensrsquo attitudes toward the major parties When uninformed citizens receive political information they systematically shift their political preferences away from the Republican Party and toward the Democrats In contrast to the optimistic claims that political ignorance is compensated through other mechanisms our results suggest that the lack of information in the current American electorate typically produces results that differ from the ideal counterfactual world where all voters are informed

Source INQUIRY Pages 17 Subject 1 HEALTH CARE--LONG-TERM 2 INSURANCE LONG-TERM Notes This paper investigates the effects of privately purchased long-term care insurance (LTCI) on t hree major types of
long-term care services nursing home care paid home care and informal care received from family and friends Using 2002ndash2008 data from the ongoing Health and Retirement Study we analyze the determinants of long-term care utilization simultaneously with the determinants of holding LTCI We find that LTCI has modest effects on the likelihood of using long-term care services For the very frail elderly private LTCI enhances their access to nursing home care For those with moderate disability LTCI makes it more likely that they can remain at home and receive home care services instead of going to a nursing home We find no evidence that formal care substitutes for informal care in the presence of LTCI These findings suggest that if LTCI becomes much more prevalent in the future many older adults will be able to choose the type of long-term care arrangement that best suits their needs

Title THE POLITICAL CONSEQUENCES OF UNINFORMED VOTERS (Book) --2011
Source SOCIAL SCIENCE RESEARCH NETWORK Pages 45 Subject 1 ELECTIONS Notes Anthony Fowler and Michele Margolis authors
Survey researchers have long known that Americans fail to meet the democratic ideals of an informed electorate The consequences of this political ignorance however are less clear In two independent settings we experimentally test the effect of political information on citizensrsquo attitudes toward the major parties When uninformed citizens receive political information they systematically shift their political preferences away from the Republican Party and toward the Democrats In contrast to the optimistic claims that political ignorance is compensated through other mechanisms our results suggest that the lack of information in the current American electorate typically produces results that differ from the ideal counterfactual world where all voters are informed

conducted over the Internet in 2008 That amount was 165 of all US shipments and sales in that year Other estimates projected the 2011 so-called e-commerce volume at approximately $35 trillion The volume of e-commerce is expected to increase and state and l ocal governments are concerned because collection of sales taxes on t hese transactions is difficult to enforce Under current law states cannot reach beyond their borders and compel out-of-state Internet vendors (those without nexus in the buyerrsquos state) to collect the use tax owed by state residents and businesses The Supreme Court ruled in 1967 that requiring remote vendors to collect the use tax would pose an undue burden on interstate commerce Estimates put this lost tax revenue at approximately $86 billion in 2010

long-term care services nursing home care paid home care and informal care received from family and friends Using 2002ndash2008 data from the ongoing Health and Retirement Study we analyze the determinants of long-term care utilization simultaneously with the determinants of holding LTCI We find that LTCI has modest effects on the likelihood of using long-term care services For the very frail elderly private LTCI enhances their access to nursing home care For those with moderate disability LTCI makes it more likely that they can remain at home and receive home care services instead of going to a nursing home We find no evidence that formal care substitutes for informal care in the presence of LTCI These findings suggest that if LTCI becomes much more prevalent in the future many older adults will be able to choose the type of long-term care arrangement that best suits their needs

Source SOCIAL SCIENCE RESEARCH NETWORK Pages 45 Subject 1 ELECTIONS Notes Anthony Fowler and Michele Margolis authors
Survey researchers have long known that Americans fail to meet the democratic ideals of an informed electorate The consequences of this political ignorance however are less clear In two independent settings we experimentally test the effect of political information on citizensrsquo attitudes toward the major parties When uninformed citizens receive political information they systematically shift their political preferences away from the Republican Party and toward the Democrats In contrast to the optimistic claims that political ignorance is compensated through other mechanisms our results suggest that the lack of information in the current American electorate typically produces results that differ from the ideal counterfactual world where all voters are informed

Source INQUIRY Pages 17 Subject 1 HEALTH CARE--LONG-TERM 2 INSURANCE LONG-TERM Notes This paper investigates the effects of privately purchased long-term care insurance (LTCI) on t hree major types of
long-term care services nursing home care paid home care and informal care received from family and friends Using 2002ndash2008 data from the ongoing Health and Retirement Study we analyze the determinants of long-term care utilization simultaneously with the determinants of holding LTCI We find that LTCI has modest effects on the likelihood of using long-term care services For the very frail elderly private LTCI enhances their access to nursing home care For those with moderate disability LTCI makes it more likely that they can remain at home and receive home care services instead of going to a nursing home We find no evidence that formal care substitutes for informal care in the presence of LTCI These findings suggest that if LTCI becomes much more prevalent in the future many older adults will be able to choose the type of long-term care arrangement that best suits their needs
