@NateSilver538 @Ed_Realist To an extent, sure. But I think the charter/DCPS contrast is important here, the whole point of charter schools is to reduce union influence relative to parental influence and the result was more Covid caution not less. — PolitiTweet.org

Everytime a place I went back when I was young and fun closes, I suddenly want to throw all my principles overboard and become a hardcore preservationist. https://t.co/Q4AypamhGD — PolitiTweet.org

The closures were disastrous, but the problem for @reason's ideology is that the disaster was being *too responsive to consumer demand* when an effective public education system requires a certain amount of coercion. — PolitiTweet.org

And as @PerryStein kept reporting, during the partial reopening phase the schools in the low-income neighborhoods were the ones that struggled to convince families to go back to in-person schooling. https://t.co/A7yQHUUQuZ — PolitiTweet.org

I was vehemently against school closures, but this framing really underscores how neglected @Ed_Realist's point about family demand is. In DC, for example, the charter schools reopened slower and with stricter Covid protocols than the public schools. — PolitiTweet.org

Fentanyl is a really hard problem to solve — it's quite potent and thus easy to conceal, plus you can make it in arbitrary locations. https://t.co/WJk0sPThqn — PolitiTweet.org

Teaching good reading & math skills is a necessary precursor to any kind of “citizenship” stuff and much less controversial. We should focus on doing it better and providing the needed resources. https://t.co/xsrXc6Vo65 — PolitiTweet.org

"Ban all abortions" is unpopular, but I don't think it's *less* popular than blanket opposition to taxing the rich — a committed pro-life movement could push Republicans to moderate elsewhere and stick to a relatively extreme view on abortion. — PolitiTweet.org

@socio_steve I don't really understand what the practical difference is between a Singapore-style "everyone is on a ground lease" and a normal property tax. I used to live in a condo that was built on DC-owned land with a 99-year lease and it was no different from any other condo. — PolitiTweet.org
