David Card Academic Work

David Card gained notoriety in the early 1990s when he and his Princeton University colleague Alan B. Krueger discovered, according to commonly held assumptions among economists, that raising the minimum wage in New Jersey did not result in job losses at fast-food restaurants in the state.  Many economists, including Joseph Stiglitz and Paul Krugman, accept Card and Krueger’s conclusions, despite the methodology (see the difference in differences) and claim (see minimum wage for discussion). David Card has also contributed significantly[peacock prose] to studies on immigration, education, job training, and inequality. Card’s work is largely concerned with comparing the United States and Canada in various scenarios. Card’s study on immigration has revealed that new immigrants have a negligible economic impact. The card has conducted many case studies on immigrant groups’ fast integration, concluding that it has little or no influence on earnings. Card, for example, looked at the economic consequences of the Mariel boatlift in Miami and compared them to the effects in Atlanta, Houston, Los Angeles, and Tampa, which had fewer Cuban immigrants.

Despite a 7 percent rise in low-skilled labor in Miami, Card discovered that earnings for low-skilled employees were not considerably influenced. Furthermore, he discovered that the rapid surge of immigrants had little effect on general unemployment rates or salaries in Miami’s labor market. The card stated in an interview with The New York Times, “The economic reasons [against immigration] are, in my opinion, second-class. They’re nearly unimportant.” This isn’t to say that Card thinks immigration should be expanded; it only means that immigrants aren’t a danger to the labor market.
