It was good to hold a congressional vote on marriage equality precisely because it separates out the substance of the issue from all the hand-waving about the founders — what we learned is that the vast majority of congressional republicans are against it. https://t.co/5CT4iOYS8j — PolitiTweet.org

@RichardHanania I think liberals respect democracy while acknowledging some tension while Thiel has open contempt for it and wants to destroy the foundations of the most successful societies in human history. — PolitiTweet.org

“Taking Covid seriously” at this point should be acting with more urgency on vaccine development, not endlessly clinging to 2020-vintage non-pharmaceutical interventions. There are big opportunities to speed this up. https://t.co/YJDtA6C5BY — PolitiTweet.org

@bobbibarn @ggwash @jenny_schuetz I’ve always understood the Height of Buildings Act to be a bigger deal for office development than residential, and office demand is in the toilet right now. But I favor changing it regardless. — PolitiTweet.org

Urban living is undersupplied even though it’s also true that it’s a minority taste — as if we banned Pepsi in most jurisdictions and said it’s fine because people prefer Coke. https://t.co/7jr2rD6BLm https://t.co/N5hcmExFI1 — PolitiTweet.org

@kwcollins I agree about the PAC and the need for a more straightforwardly “political” posture. But I also think that starts with organizing the issue space because we don’t have a villain like Erlich. — PolitiTweet.org

Nobody warned me that Licorice Pizza depicts the origins of 1970s NIMBY-as-progressive politics. https://t.co/OxLPh1E15F — PolitiTweet.org

Broadly upzoning DC would unlock a massive amount of economic surplus that could easily be used to leave everyone better off — our local political debate needs to start thinking bigger. https://t.co/7jr2rD6BLm — PolitiTweet.org

@alon_levy It’s not a proposal for those cities! — PolitiTweet.org

Interestingly this was a pretty widely held view at the time. Franz-Ferdinand’s support for transforming the dual monarchy into a triple monarchy with a “Slavic” sub-unit was seen as provocative and destabilizing. This was the NYT analysis. https://t.co/Ng0oqwAoLi — PolitiTweet.org

Then we need to address the non-fake reason people oppose new construction — parking. Reform the RPP system to stop issuing new ones while giving incumbent permit-holders the right to sell theirs. Turn parking scarcity into a financial windfall! https://t.co/7jr2rD6BLm — PolitiTweet.org

In the DC context, I think there are two concessions that should be made to left-NIMBYs: — Let the poorest neighborhoods opt out if they want to — Let neighborhoods impose a modest inclusionary zoning requirement if they want to https://t.co/7jr2rD6BLm — PolitiTweet.org

I would simply allow unlimited amounts of housing to be built on residentially zoned land. https://t.co/7jr2rD6BLm — PolitiTweet.org

Pelegrino & Zingales seems more plausible to me, but as the child of cool parents I am naturally partial to the theory that cool parents are bad for the economy. — PolitiTweet.org

The idea that Mani Pulite backfired is interesting. After all, nobody thinks Italian politics has been fixed! — PolitiTweet.org

Gratton, Guiso, Michelacci, and Morelli argue that the big corruption scandals of the early 1990s generated a surge of badly written laws that paradoxically made the state function worse. https://t.co/PEtk3cdbqD https://t.co/pDW7k77dwX — PolitiTweet.org

Billari & Tabellini say Italian parents are too tolerant of their adult children having sex while still living with them, leading to delayed household formation and slow economic growth. https://t.co/p8XZyqIBDd https://t.co/7fh2K63Sn2 — PolitiTweet.org

Are there major criticisms of Pelegrino & Zingales on the Italian economy that I should read before deciding they are right? https://t.co/p8XZyqIBDd https://t.co/8X97BSid7a — PolitiTweet.org

@JoacoGimeno The US is an example of a country where the main passenger operator mostly doesn’t own the tracks. I would suggest everyone copy Japan in this area. — PolitiTweet.org

@dgravanita It would be a weak argument if it depended on only citing the unfavorable cases — I think the successes in Italy were driven by private ownership rather than competition. — PolitiTweet.org

There’s a roughly parallel issue in the US where some people want to treat freight railroads as monopolies rather than recognizing the basic reality that they compete with trucks. — PolitiTweet.org

The market is “getting from Rome to Milan” not “getting from Rome to Milan on a train.” Europe should be pushing more cross-border consolidation of vertically integrated railroads, not separating infrastructure from ops and pushing open access. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
The EU’s push to get passenger train companies to compete directly with each other rather than competing with airlines, private cars, and buses seems really misguided. — PolitiTweet.org
