摘要：This seminar examines the relation between diversity and long-term economic performance in a dynamic general equilibrium model where consumers differ ex ante in time preference and labor productivity. We show that changing the distribution of these characteristics will affect the steady state by distorting the composition of aggregate labor supply. The exact nature of this effect depends on the shape of the individual labor supply function. Changing the distribution of time preference will also affect the distribution of marginal tax rates across individuals. The aggregate outcome of this is determined by the concavity or convexity of the marginal tax function.
