This is an extremely refreshing article featuring all the ways federal regulation has made US cars much bigger, wasteful, and more dangerous for pedestrians. "Federal leaders [should] simply unwind the ill-advised policies already on the books." vox.com/future-perfect…
Prosecutorial misconduct wouldn't prevent @PhillyPolice from being able to fire a cop who shot a guy in the back. We need Act 111 reform now. This arbitration system is anti-democratic and rigged. inquirer.com/news/philadelp…
Urban agriculture is terrible policy. It's most present in high-poverty neighborhoods because that's where you see unused plots of land because it's less valuable. We would be better off if almost any other use was economical. And sometimes there is and we put policy in the way.

Here's my dilemma. Do I point out the economic calculation problem or point to some good enough studies or proxies that probably underestimate the amount, but are enough to show the magnitude of the shortage?

Philly should stop while it's behind with the Land Bank. May G-d have mercy on our souls if we ever go down this road more broadly.

If you agree with me that it's outrageous for the City of Philadelphia to be "preserving" parking lots and further restricting new housing in Center City, I hope you'll join me in signing this @5thSq petition. 5thsq.org/wash-west-hist…

In Philly, it's not the suburban boomers who are the problem, but generally speaking, the meme checks out.
Wait, so @CongBoyle (1) has continuously wanted to commit his brother against his will, but (2) has allowed constituents to believe this problem was solved? inquirer.com/politics/penns…

Philly corruption is petty and omnipresent. The solution is to have gov't touch things as little as possible. The city should sell off all of its vacant properties immediately.

In Feb the councilmember’s office said there were permit apps for 111 affordable homes because of the zoning overlay, but that’s not actually true. I want more affordable housing in west philly and wish they would be transparent about whether this is the way to achieve that
The impact of land use policies of this scale can't be fully assessed for decades. But in just 19 months, our Mixed-Income Neighborhoods Overlay promises to generate 160+ affordable private market homes (and counting!) in areas of opportunity, without halting development! (1/4)
Here’s a quick way to assess the student blockades of campus spaces: Would you support them if those enforcing them had viewpoints you vehemently disagreed with? For instance, would it be permissible for conservative students to exclude progressive students from campus spaces?
Strong Towns talks about the "traditional development pattern" but mistakes positive and normative. Just because cities developed incrementally over time doesn't mean that's how development should be nor is that what makes cities "resilient".
A new development in Tempe, Arizona, claims to be “the best place to live car-free in the U.S.” But while this development may look like a strong town, it’s lacking one of the most important elements: resilience born from incremental development.
"Raise fertility rates by ruiniously taxing everything that seems more fun than changing dirty diapers, I am very serious and this idea won't have any obvious negative consequences." 🤡 🤡 🤡
500% alcohol taxes! Ruinously high income tax rates on gambling winnings! An excise tax on porn charged per second of video! "Per booking" taxes on airline tickets that are charged the same rate for 1 ticket vs. 10 tickets! Car taxes that scale inversely to the car's seating!
Jews aren't why your life sucks, but I know you and I know your life sucks. Cry about it
@theangrytacoz I’m not advocating for that either. Do you really need me to post examples of antisemitism left, right, and center to prove it’s still alive and well and not all just a slander for opposing the Netanyahu or something?
We need to reject antisemitism as a culture; we do not need to police it from perch of the state. This is precisely how government destroys every element of civil society able to regulate behavior in its absence.
This bill would allow the Education Department to appoint a third-party antisemitism monitor to any college receiving government funds. reason.com/2024/04/29/bip…

Consumption poverty has more or less been eliminated in the (capitalist) United States. No system does a better job than capitalism of getting people what they need
Socialists aren’t driven by envy of the “more successful.” We are socialists because we want workers to have what’s rightfully theirs — and we know a world with less greed and envy, and where everyone has what they need, is possible. jacobin.com/2023/04/social…
The campus protests are making the discourse pretty agitated right now, but the good news is it’ll only get worse until November, when people will lose their minds regardless of what happens
