I in fact have criticized both Disney and LeBron James on exactly these grounds. But here’s what I’m asking of conservatives — set aside for the moment your seething hatred of the libs and ask whether it’s good for American for Twitter’s owner to have these incentives. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s totally reasonable, as a business decision, for Musk to defer to China in this way. But it makes me worry about his stewardship of what he describes as an important platform for controlling the dissemination of information. — PolitiTweet.org

I mention all this because I liked it better when our right-wing business executives and capital-owners got their economic information from guys like @MichaelRStrain at AEI rather than re-wrapping leftist crank economics with rightist crank resentments. https://t.co/2smiyrVwDM — PolitiTweet.org

I think you can make a strong case that things have gotten worse in terms of fewer social ties and close friendships, a lower marriage rate and fewer children. But if you’re asking about material abundance what do we have less of? — PolitiTweet.org

Arguing about price indexes and hedonic adjustments gets confusing so it’s worth asking about quantities consumed — compared to 30 years ago, we have bigger homes and more cars + lots more home electronics. We dine out more, fly more, and get more years of education. — PolitiTweet.org

There was a point in the mid-2010s when you could tell a super-pessimistic story about how CPI-adjusted household income was still below its 1999 level but from today’s vantage point the last 20 years look pretty good. https://t.co/TlcWGj6Ck5 — PolitiTweet.org

Since 1990, the price of housing has (on average — you don’t need to tell me some cities are more expensive) risen in line with median income and cars have gotten dramatically cheaper. College is way more expensive but the share of people going has gone up. https://t.co/FmzcegAwZm — PolitiTweet.org

I guess to offer a hot (?) take I would say that being really really good-looking is a bona fide occupational qualification for celebrity work and it’s not per se “nepotism” that the daughter of Lenny Kravitz & Lisa Bonet is a beautiful, charismatic movie star. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s easy to mistake the stakes of “should Musk step down as Twitter CEO” — the guy owns multiple companies and just as a boring practical matter should hire someone like-minded to have their full-time job be running twitter. — PolitiTweet.org
