How come in the whole history of the GSS nobody has ever gotten two answers right on the WORDSUM test? https://t.co/wwIrV9H7wx — PolitiTweet.org

@blahblahblah9tn @PaoloShirasi @MattBruenig @Noahpinion Right — people cite it back to that blog post which cites a 1980 article in a sociology journal which is using data that I believe is from the 1940s. It might be true. But I’d like to see someone take a closer look at it. — PolitiTweet.org

@Ed_Realist Yes. My early career was defined by a very high volume of output — tons of hard work but with a non-perfectionist ethos. — PolitiTweet.org

@shemtovo @antoniogm Singapore is not as expensive as the US but it’s on the high cost side along with the UK and Canada influenced by Anglophone litigation culture. The cheap tunneling countries are Spain, Korea, Italy, and the Nordics. — PolitiTweet.org

To be clear, I am happy to see all Amazon acquisitions rigorously scrutinized — but Hawley specifically voiced the concern that Amazon would *reduce prices* in the health care sector which is a dumb thing to worry about. https://t.co/hVR2bXJ8lL — PolitiTweet.org

Legislative achievements are rarely rewarded by the voters but for the White House there’s upside to getting IRA done in that scoring a huge substantive win on climate let’s then focus on short-term energy prices rather than placating environmentalists. — PolitiTweet.org
