~10 years ago this was a point acknowledged in a piece advocating *for* gender-affirming care for trans kids but if you said it today it would be considered a spicy rightwing take https://t.co/zZSeqwAYMv https://t.co/mAyoBEeYbp — PolitiTweet.org

@Vidor1 Of course but whatever amount of revenue is used to cover the gap in fares could also be used to improve service — there’s no getting around the tradeoff — PolitiTweet.org

More broadly, I think everyone is aware that the United States is not a world leader in mass transit. American policymakers should be asking “what best practices can we copy from Munich & Seoul & Turin” not “what brand-new ideas can we pioneer?” — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
A small amount of fare evasion is not important but if you don’t enforce the rules at all then nobody will pay the fare and that will be a big hit to transit revenue and lead to worse service … this seems pretty obvious. — PolitiTweet.org

I wish we could get stories like this headlined “Washington State might allow four-unit buildings” — I think a lot of people read this as a proposal to prohibit single-family homes or something. https://t.co/58yxhIZdvf — PolitiTweet.org

Real wages back to growing — to the extent inflation is now driven by prices in labor-intensive services, I think that’s probably less of a big deal politically than inflation in commodities or manufactured goods. https://t.co/6C6XoNBDog — PolitiTweet.org

@BrianCAlbrecht I think it’s normally seen as very influential to have direct access to the president, but as with any White House job it really hinges on to what extent people actually listen to you. — PolitiTweet.org

Something about this framing makes me think the hearings aren’t going to be geared toward producing constructive legislation that would improve things. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s unfortunate to have your stated approach to politics and diplomacy be that you should literally never make any kind of concessions — the world just isn’t that zero-sum! https://t.co/Uz23OrMCJo — PolitiTweet.org

DC’s unique constitutional status also means me are suffering from a weird shortage of trial court judges, a problem that could get much worse if we expand the list of offenses that require a jury trial — we desperately need a solution here. https://t.co/38zLT02x4W https://t.co/snYw8gN9Xy — PolitiTweet.org

But returning to where I started, reformers will misapprehend the situation if they think of DC as having an unusually harsh penal regime rather than an unusual high number of shootings and murders. — PolitiTweet.org

Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
That should include going after minor but easy-to-detect crimes like fare evasion in part because that lets you check people for more serious offenses like carrying illegal guns or outstanding warrants. https://t.co/81PAk3VOOd — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
I don’t particularly want to see the penal regime made harsher, but I do think that if we want to see less punishment the focus has to be on investing more in detecting crimes and apprehending the offenders. https://t.co/1X1PyZpZB7 — PolitiTweet.org

Some decent evidence for a math education intervention (cautionary note: education stuff often doesn't hold up when you try to bring it to larger scale). https://t.co/igtyOzyEOE https://t.co/IuuBoYwF4j — PolitiTweet.org
