imo the big problem with “defund the police” is that defunding the police is a bad idea — austerity is bad, public services are good, policing is important, and better policing will be more costly than bad policing not cheaper — PolitiTweet.org

@rortybomb Developing a take that hysteresis is fake. Full employment hawks used to like it as a scare story to increase the urgency around short-term stimulus, but in practice it’s backfired as a concept and the evidence is weak. Modern economy has so many non-employment margins. — PolitiTweet.org

On the politics there is some retroactive forgetting here but what happened is that a lot of mainstreamish liberal groups briefly hopped on the defund bandwagon and that become a lever for GOP attacks. https://t.co/AuLVyPmXxE — PolitiTweet.org
