@GagnonMacro Oh yeah Europe is a whole different story — we should be encouraging Americans to spend their “excess savings” on vacationing in Italy. — PolitiTweet.org

My suspicion is 98% of editors, writers, and academics are aware of all this but the situation has become so tense that it’s become oddly spicy to point out the obvious. https://t.co/5SfhYEHitw — PolitiTweet.org

If you pretend that sex-segregation of sports is done for some other reason (or for no reason at all) that resolves some coalition tensions but there’s a reason no prominent female athletes are arguing for integration — what they want is equal pay and respect. https://t.co/wlw3L7OdZq — PolitiTweet.org

We have gender-segregated sports because men are larger and stronger than women but we also think there is social value in creating a distinct class of woman champions, stars, and role-models while encouraging broad participation. https://t.co/5SfhYEHitw — PolitiTweet.org

On shelter inflation the good news is that if you measure spot rents, inflation is already falling a lot. But the bad news is that current inflation is *higher* than the official stats say. So I don’t think it really changes the policy assessment. https://t.co/FegHW0gBUW https://t.co/cgqDZFzppy — PolitiTweet.org

@davidshor That was the older wave of protests though right? I think the newer, more nationalized wave had national effects on crime and does not seem to have reduced police killings either. — PolitiTweet.org

The relevance of supply side issues in this isn’t that they can fix inflation, but that if we want the economy to grow it needs to be supply-led growth rather than the demand-led growth of 2001-2021. https://t.co/hnvfTBXYhi — PolitiTweet.org

I think we have just about all rediscovered that aggregate inflation is driven by aggregate spending and that different components can bounce up and down within that context but the inflation only falls if aggregate spending falls. — PolitiTweet.org

@brianbeutler Is there any reason to believe that the voters in Ohio disagree with Vance about Jones > Maddow? I feel pretty confident that they disagree with Republicans about cutting Social Security, Medicare, ad Medicare. — PolitiTweet.org

@CharlesFLehman I actually think that’s part of why yesterday’s discourse went so off the rails — you and other conservatives see “de facto strike” as much more pejorative than I do, so we wound up discussing rhetoric when I’d genuinely like some specific policy ideas to improve things. — PolitiTweet.org

This is a so much more pressing issue about the future of Twitter than 99% of the stuff the discourse has focused on. — PolitiTweet.org

A lot of conventional wisdom about who is hurt by inflation (“on a fixed income” etc) derives from the 60s-70s experience when there was no inflation indexing of Social Security benefits but many workers had COLA clauses in collective bargaining agreements. — PolitiTweet.org

@JustinTLogan I could easily tell the story the other way around — the currently war has let the US massively degrade Russian military capacity for a relatively low price to us, but at the expense of significant death & destruction for Ukraine that they might want to halt. — PolitiTweet.org

@JustinTLogan We should absolutely make our decisions and divergences of interests are very real (especially around Crimea) but in terms of “provoking Russia to use nuclear weapons would be bad” the interests seem very aligned — it’s Ukraine that would get blown up… — PolitiTweet.org

Most of the things that people attribute to dollar dominance — monetary sovereignty, ability to run persistent trade deficits, etc — are also present in New Zealand. https://t.co/oEpIqI2q67 — PolitiTweet.org

I don’t think OPEC denominating oil prices in dollars has any actual benefits for the United States — this is something people talk about a lot but the economics don’t make any sense to me. — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s a hot take: If inflation continues to be way higher than the target, the Fed is going to keep raising interest rates at a rapid pace. — PolitiTweet.org
