@johnjhorton Well they would *if* David Leonhardt would agree with them. — PolitiTweet.org

On pandemics, as on alcohol, we need ideas that are ambitious but also realistic — not just endlessly crashing our heads into the same wall. There are so many politically plausible areas for progress. https://t.co/8NGDNvK35X https://t.co/oiVRElEjC6 — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
But even if I got my way on that, there would still be significant public health problems related to alcohol. You could try to solve that with blanket prohibition but (a) voters wouldn't stand for it and (b) as we know enforcement is challenging. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
One reason I focus specifically on taxes is that I think the country is facing some future fiscal policy choices in which *all* the available options are politically unpalatable, so I'd like to see this particular unpalatable idea in the mix. https://t.co/FiDRQBKGTb — PolitiTweet.org

We live with a quantity of cirrhosis, of drunk driving, of alcohol-fueled domestic violence and other problems that I think is much higher than it should be. I try to convince people that we should raise alcohol taxes and try to mitigate these issues. https://t.co/zthbMOqKwD — PolitiTweet.org

An example distant from infectious diseases — US public health outcomes would clearly improve if nobody in the country every drank any alcoholic beverages. But what actual *policy recommendation* follows from that is very unclear. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
I think this discourse tends to reflect both a failure to reckon with cost-benefit analysis but also a lack of consideration as to what a the plausible role of public health expertise in a democratic society. https://t.co/shb15YdyZI — PolitiTweet.org

It's funny that because it's 60+ years old and for "research" there's a nuclear reactor sitting in the middle of Cambridge, MA and nobody minds. https://t.co/dDwafJV8qS — PolitiTweet.org

People don’t like to see chaos and we should do what it takes to deliver a sense of order. But foreigners’ desire to move here is a great strength of our country and we should take advantage of it in an orderly way. https://t.co/fLVoT9DV0W https://t.co/ForeVau66N — PolitiTweet.org

Same logic on asylum — we should change the law to dissuade people from making long trips to claim asylum. And if there are groups we feel sympathetic to (certainly including the Venezuelans DeSantis is kidnapping) we should make special legal provision for them. — PolitiTweet.org

Old consensus: — Invest in border security to reduce the flow of illegal migrants — Increase the flow of legal migrants with more emphasis on labor market needs — Reduce the stock of illegal residents with a pass to citizenship + focused enforcement https://t.co/fLVoT9EsQu — PolitiTweet.org

In today’s Slow Boring I stand up for the old bipartisan comprehensive immigration reform consensus versus a new debate that’s been hijacked by extremists and derailed by the asylum debate. https://t.co/fLVoT9DV0W — PolitiTweet.org

If you listen to pollsters who believe there were fundamental problems with the 2020 polling and try to fix it, the GOP looks in much better shape than if you listen to the ones who assume poll errors are random and unpredictable so you should keep polling as usual. — PolitiTweet.org
