There used to be a fairly even distribution of cranks across the parties but there’s been a large move of former leftist cranks into the right. https://t.co/al19FTz9RE https://t.co/eEmXwsFcVc — PolitiTweet.org

Another good idea! Picking exactly which features to prioritize is hard, but fundamentally this is what Twitter needs — more/better features to improve the product so everyone can have a better time or get more value out of having followers. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattyglesias I just want an easy way to see where people (opt-in) are by location so I can easily do Tweetups when I travel.

When you get the list of who follows you, it should be possible to sort it so you can see your own most popular followers — yesterday I found out by accident that Arnold Schwarzenegger follows me! https://t.co/aK5ITEvR4B — PolitiTweet.org

This won’t attract as much attention as more overtly political moderation stuff, but what Twitter really needs is ongoing product improvement — you should be able to schedule tweets for deletion (or mass delete old ones) without using a third party service, for example. — PolitiTweet.org

The other thing about fare-beaters is it is by definition hard to tell who is illegally carrying a concealed handgun. If you arrest people who are visibly breaking minor rules and search them, you can generate gun cases without needing to do “stop and frisk” on innocent people. — PolitiTweet.org

I bet lots of people think it’s a good idea to enforce the rules but few of them will say it on Twitter so I’ll say it — fare evasion is not the biggest problem in the world but it’s good to enforce the rules. — PolitiTweet.org

@alixabeth Yes that was me — a lot of people chose to pretend that I said she was unique in this regard even though I didn’t and then had fun bashing me for saying something I didn’t say.

@alon_levy @garrett_wollman @op4dave Alon, I think the relevant point here is that whatever *you* think is worth conserving the conservationists want to conserve everything and thus tend in practice to oppose utility-scale solar and be skeptical of big new transmission projects to complement it. — PolitiTweet.org

@ATabarrok I don’t think that’s right — if we made Tabarrok-approved changes to the FDA (or Yglesias-approved changes to zoning) then real wages would go up but that wouldn’t cause unemployment. — PolitiTweet.org

For a long time we were in @paulkrugman’s Depression Economics but we’re now just back in Regular Economics where living standards are determined by a mix of luck, technological progress, and whether or not we get pro-efficiency policy. https://t.co/wwfOLEZzeO — PolitiTweet.org

All these pessimistic Summers tweets are correct but he’s talking about (a). I think the more serious issue is (b) and the prospects for (b)-focused policy change are better, it’s just mostly out of the Fed’s hands. — PolitiTweet.org

Lawrence H. Summers @LHSummers

The history of developed countries since 1970 is very discouraging about the prospects of bringing down 8 percent inflation.

“It’s all gas prices” is wrong for example, but commodities are important because of the wage/price wedge. If burrito prices raise because Chipotle workers wages rise that’s redistribution. If it’s because of higher food costs that’s just most people getting poorer. — PolitiTweet.org

These are related but not identical — and since they are both happening we can just talk about “inflation” and various strategies for reducing it. But they are different things and could come apart in the future. — PolitiTweet.org

Inflation discussions get a little frustrating/confusing because we’re really talking about two different things simultaneously: (a) Prices are rising faster than the Fed’s target (b) Prices are rising faster than wages, reducing real income — PolitiTweet.org
