In general, we think that competitive markets will be more efficient and generate more consumer welfare. That’s sort of what happens here: When the market for medical services is more competitive, patients are more likely to get what they want — but what they want is bad. — PolitiTweet.org

What happens when physicians face new competition from expanded scope of practice for nurse-practitioners? Physicians hand out more prescriptions for addictive painkillers and for combo prescriptions of opioids opioids and benzodiazepines. 😬😬😬 https://t.co/UdWRzxbrFA https://t.co/CC5iPEg4y9 — PolitiTweet.org

It’s fine if Republicans want to whine that they didn’t get the abuse of power they were hoping for, but the people pretending that this is really about civil libertarians standing up to leftist dominated law enforcement and intelligence communities are either stupid or lying. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Because most law enforcement professionals have conservative political views, rightists are often in position to benefit from abuses of power and perhaps-reasonably expect them to happen. But the whole complaint in this case is that they behaved properly. — PolitiTweet.org

To be fair, the FBI *really does do this* and inappropriately leak information pre-election to try to defeat disfavored candidates — it happened to Vince Gray in his 2014 re-election campaign and it happened to Hillary in 2016. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
This tweet is why you should dismiss the Twitter Files — the complaint here is just that the FBI *didn’t* do abuse of power to try to throw the election to Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

Love a good “this thing everyone thinks already is basically true” study — too many counterintuitive findings out there! — PolitiTweet.org

Not the main subject of this post, but I think most Democrats underrate the extent to which regulation rather than lack of funding is now the main impediment to renewables growth. https://t.co/Zdd3XzNh8i https://t.co/cCQPmut4nL — PolitiTweet.org

Automated traffic enforcement is good, a rare opportunity to increase police productivity while reducing the odds of violent encounters. But for it to work, cops & DOTs need to crack down on fake tags. https://t.co/TLj4C4mVH3 — PolitiTweet.org

I think just the opposite. Upzoning raises land values (homeowners win) but reduces rents (renters win) because the whole point is you are putting more units on the land. https://t.co/RCRNEGqffj — PolitiTweet.org

There’s no escape from housing politics, I’m on vacation two days and I’ve already met a “Hochul’s upzoning will destroy property values” guy and a “new construction raises rents” guy. — PolitiTweet.org

Even beyond fake tags, DC has a problem of impunity for speeding drivers from Maryland & Virginia because we have under-invested in booting repeat offenders. https://t.co/TLj4C4mVH3 https://t.co/K6SDMkMFU6 — PolitiTweet.org

Now in article form — it’s time to take the proliferation of expired, fake, or deliberately obscured tags seriously! https://t.co/TLj4C4mVH3 https://t.co/tleaKQdakI — PolitiTweet.org

I agree that a lot of the *rhetoric* around the policy has been grandiose and over-the-top because cold-eyed realism makes for bad speeches but that’s just part of life. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
A country that is broadly hostile to American interests (Russia) launched an illegal invasion of a neighboring country (Ukraine) based on a miscalculation that Ukrainian resistance would swiftly crumble. That’s created an opportunity for us to weaken Russia by aiding Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s not even Libya or Syria where we put small numbers of troops on the ground and committed ourselves (successfully in Libya, unsuccessfully in Syria) to regime change. It’s not even Kosovo or Bosnia where there were American air strikes. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
I’m going to take the bait on this one — I think the actual policy in Ukraine has been much more restrained than this kind of criticism allows. This is not Iraq or Afghanistan where the US is putting large numbers of troops in harm’s way. — PolitiTweet.org

A separate question from formal policy is parenting choices — we lived under fairly tight NPIs in DC but our kid saw his friends frequently, it was just that they had to play outside. Some parents were much more extreme than the rules. — PolitiTweet.org

The Covid NPIs —> depression hypothesis seems like it should be easily testable due to significant state-to-state policy variation. — PolitiTweet.org
