Cars should be required to have license plates is my new favorite "contrarian" take. — PolitiTweet.org

@Ravarora1 Taking middway walks is a little boring, yes. — PolitiTweet.org

I mean, the reason I'm taking the pictures is that they are breaking the law and I would like their illegal behavior to be halted. It's not some big mystery. https://t.co/8ZDF2VJYmq — PolitiTweet.org

@nickpwing I guess this is what I'm saying: There are a lot of complicated, hard-to-solve problems in public policy. But speeding in a dense city like DC is not that complicated or hard to solve. You ticket people who speed, and you seize the cars if they don't pay. — PolitiTweet.org

@nickpwing You're the criminal justice guy, why don't you tell me what you think should happen to people who repeatedly get ticketed for speeding and who don't pay the tickets. My proposal: Take their car. Your proposal: ??? — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
I also genuinely don't understand what approach to speeding we're supposed to take that doesn't involve fines and seizures. Is the idea that nobody would break the speed limit if we offered them good jobs and affordable housing? — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
"Zero traffic deaths" is a difficult goal. But I firmly believe that if we: — Use cameras to ticket people who speed — Seize the cars of people who don't pay their tickets We will end up with less speeding and fewer deaths — PolitiTweet.org

Here we’ve got an illegal tags guy in motion so I can’t report him as a parking violation — but you’re on my list! https://t.co/LjspXjt1Ti — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
@nickpwing I agree that the enforcement is much too lax. They should seize people’s cars when they don’t pay. — PolitiTweet.org

Obviously there were first generation college students but “First Gen” as a recognized identity category is something that didn’t really exist when I was in school twenty years ago. You can’t stop innovation! https://t.co/LGLMZ7cuaB — PolitiTweet.org

@nickpwing I guess I do in fact think that consistently penalizing people who violate traffic laws will make the roads safer. — PolitiTweet.org

My entry into the discourse — general principles about human dignity, freedom, and equality don't answer specific factual questions about how medications work or whether they are being prescribed responsibly. https://t.co/GCAIwhPVrn — PolitiTweet.org

@jaycaspiankang That sounds like too much work — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
You can’t decide to enforce the rules against fake tags only *after* they are used to get away with a lethal hit-and-run, dangerous speeding, or a drive-by shooting — by then it’s too late! — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
I am open to being persuaded that license plates are pointless or something but on its face being able to identify which cars are which seems to have a lot of useful law enforcement and traffic safety functions. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
If someone wants to write an essay making the case that license plate laws are bad and should be repealed, I will read it. But if we think cars should have license plates then you can’t just let people drive around with fake or expired paper tags. — PolitiTweet.org

Dangerous misinformation at my kid’s elementary school Black History Month assembly where they said Obama became president in 2008. We need to stop this Critical Chronology Theory in our education system and remind people that inauguration happens weeks after the election. — PolitiTweet.org

In this analogy, Pence is what the Herbert Hoover (Charles Dawes?) to Trump’s Coolidge? — PolitiTweet.org

Like Coolidge, our administration got the government out of the way to unleash the full power of the American economy!

I think that when people speed and run red lights that endangers other people, and that specially equipping your car with equipment designed to allow you to drive recklessly with impunity is bad. — PolitiTweet.org
