But for high school students the trend is different and boozing has sharply declined. https://t.co/HQbzEDdJel https://t.co/yztKgR1d66 — PolitiTweet.org

@DylanMSmith3 @scottlincicome @ModeledBehavior It seems like a big deal if people could really be making themselves happier by moving to Minneapolis (if they like cities) or the Dakotas (if they don’t) since these are very affordable places! — PolitiTweet.org

@scottlincicome @ModeledBehavior Obviously the main point here is to own the Europeans but I’m curious how we square the claim that these cold states are among the best places in the world to live with the observed preference for warm weather >>> whatever this is capturing. https://t.co/WYmqfozJ9a — PolitiTweet.org

The 1996 Communications Decency Act had some very broad anti-porn provisions that were struck down unanimously in 1997. So then COPA passed in 1998 and was struck down a few years later. Apparently the justices felt filtering software could address parental concerns. https://t.co/1cer8wH1Ti — PolitiTweet.org

There was a law like this (the Child Online Protection Act) but it was struck down by an 8-1 Supreme Court ruling with only Stevens in dissent. I don't remember the details beyond that, but relevant context here. — PolitiTweet.org

If you legalize some drugs you still need to be prepared to enforce the law and arrest people who operate illegal unlicensed stores, sell to kids, or otherwise break the rules — anti-enforcement fanatics can ruin any policy paradigm. https://t.co/HQbzEDeh3T https://t.co/sQC7HNKS4Y — PolitiTweet.org

Right! The system was unworkable not because private fire insurers let uninsured buildings burn, but precisely because they *didn’t* let them burn (fires spread) generating free-riding problems. — PolitiTweet.org

Yes, Apple’s behavior is bad and illustrates the problems of combining a multinational manufacturing company like Tesla with a major media operation like Twitter. I’m begging conservatives to move beyond shallow hypocrisy hits and think about this topic on the merits. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattyglesias Cool. Now do Apple……which removes apps and features at the request of the CCP
