Not asking if there have been high scoring baseball games. I lived through the 26-23 news back when the Cubs played in the day, and Wrigley was more conducive to home runs. I’m asking about the scoragami of 18-11, or whether tonight was unique. — PolitiTweet.org

Houston is eight games up on the Yankees for the 1-seed, and the Yankees are down four runs in the 8th to Pittsburgh (Pittsburgh!) at home. Magic number for the 1-seed is 7 because Houston holds the tie-breaker. — PolitiTweet.org

@jeffnolan @AriSchulman @PhilipWallach Having never been to a strip club, this demographic’s support for dollar bills escaped me (how do European strip clubs work?), but I don’t think they have as many lobbyists as copper mines. — PolitiTweet.org

Aren’t there at least 1,000 other Americans we’d want to honor on our coins before the Santa Fe Superintendent of Instruction from 1917 to 1929? Where’s Norman Borlaug? Thomas Edison? Robert Fulton? Milton Friedman? Sam Houston? Antonin Scalia? John Bardeen? Alvin York? — PolitiTweet.org

(((tedfrank))) @tedfrank

Isn’t it insulting to an intersectional group when the Mint has to condescend to scrape the barrel to find someone in the group to honor? If the Mint ever deigned to honor “Jews,” we could find over 100 people you’ve heard of before getting down to the Nina Otero-Warren level. — PolitiTweet.org

@AriSchulman @PhilipWallach We need to end one-dollar bills and widely disseminate one- and two-dollar coins. You’d think the copper lobby would do something about this. Our one-dollar coins are so rarely used that Tucker Carlson hasn’t complained about the embarrassing affirmative action 2022-23 coins. — PolitiTweet.org

(((tedfrank))) @tedfrank

@AriSchulman @PhilipWallach Because the US doesn’t have widely circulating coins worth more than $0.25, vending machines have to take credit cards or dollar bill readers or use apps. Apps break much much less often than credit card and bill readers—each of which are susceptible to crime. — PolitiTweet.org

@PhilipWallach @AriSchulman 3. Also it seems like Square makes accounting a lot easier for restaurants to comply with tax reporting? That’s also a transactions cost that may make credit worth it. — PolitiTweet.org

(((tedfrank))) @tedfrank

@PhilipWallach @AriSchulman 2. Cash has transactions costs—hiring people to carry to bank, employee theft, accounting. As crime goes up, credit card relative cost to cash decreases. Local mom and pop stopped taking cash because burglars kept breaking glass door of restaurant to steal safe. — PolitiTweet.org

(((tedfrank))) @tedfrank

@PhilipWallach @AriSchulman 1. Litigation risk explains a lot. Someone takes a gun into an event and starts shooting, the event gets blamed for not adequately screening, and thus if some events start demanding transparent bags, all do. So it’s always a one-way ratchet. — PolitiTweet.org
