The New York Times "Its the Economy" have had a few good articles recently:
Thinking Outside the (Big) Box - A look at how paying workers more can result in more sales and higher profits for companies.
Why Are Americans Staying Put? - An examination of how Americans have become less mobile and what that might mean for changes in the American economy.
Mind the Gap - Explains the limits that mayors have in combating economic inequality and how policies to fight inequality in cities could actually create more inequality - not so much because the rich will leave cities, but because the policies will attract more poor people.
Switzerland's Proposal to Pay People for Being Alive - Describes the basic-income idea that governments provide each citizen with a minimum income (instead of various welfare programs).
