What would be instructive would be to be look at the prices for veterinary services, babysitters, summer camps, haircuts, and other places where you might expect to see Baumol Effect that's largely unrelated to subsidies and regulations. The car industry is very regulated! — PolitiTweet.org

I used to love this chart but I've come to think it's misleading — by being very selective in which categories of labor-intensive services it chooses to chart, it's generated a narrative that relative price shifts are just about government regulation. https://t.co/uZRiFLZjy2 — PolitiTweet.org

Fell down a trap of reading tweets from people whose twitter feeds I don't like. It made me so mad. Which made me want to tweet about why I was mad about their tweets. Which would have generated more tweets from them and made me madder. But I had the wisdom to just close the tab. — PolitiTweet.org

GOP leapt from hard-right to unhinged, and now the establishment wants to synthesize the two in the person of Ron DeSantis. https://t.co/44Psg10nhE — PolitiTweet.org

Lots of conservative parties around the world have basically reconciled themselves to the existence of a universal health care system, old-age pensions, and cash support for the poorest as not only good but fundamentally compatible with conservatives' core aims. It sounds nice. — PolitiTweet.org

The conceit that the only two options available for the GOP are to nominate a total scumbag wannabe authoritarian or adherents of hard-right economics who want to totally shred the social safety net is very bad. — PolitiTweet.org

IMO Ryan's plan to sharply cut taxes for the rich while cutting Social Security & Medicare & then cutting Medicaid and programs for the poor even more was actually quite bad. — PolitiTweet.org

As far as I can tell nobody’s done a credible poll of DC residents’ views of the criminal code rewrite — reformers did an advocacy poll last summer “showing” people love it and the police union did a more recent poll “showing” the mayor’s veto was popular. — PolitiTweet.org
