    I have tried to explain my constitutionally protected right to free, unrestricted travel within the U.S. to airlines in the past. But they're like, "Sir, that ticket costs $300." Or "No smoking on board." , shall we report all such violations to your office #?

    Constitutional scholar Madison Cawthorn says it would be illegal for airlines to require vaccines because, “you actually have a constitutionally protected right to free, unrestricted travel within the United States.”

    Vermont’s current per capita Covid death rate is 1/10 FL’s. FL and VT are both states where seniors make up a high pct of the population. But if FL had VT’s case fatality rate, almost 2000 fewer Floridians a week would be dying. That’s what a high vaccination rate does for you.

    Vermont is one of the most vaccinated states in the country and is about to hit an all time high in covid cases. Look forward to Joe Biden and the media telling me how this is all Ron Desantis’s fault.

    . "massive amounts of new spending in the reconciliation package"?!? 🤔

    Obligatory sense of scale: even if all of this happens along with the bipartisan thingie, it will amount to 1.3% of GDP over the next decade. Huge by recent standards, but recent standards have been pitiful

    Just in case you were wondering, adjusted for inflation, the average hourly wage for production and non-supervisory workers is up 2.2 percent since the pandemic begin. It's easy to see why the Republicans are so upset.

    This is why god created property taxes (and especially progressive ones)

    If you’re charging an “affordable housing fee” but it only falls on *new* construction, then you’re kind of giving the game away there.

    Interesting to see in the retail sales data, restaurant sales are up 1.3 percent from July to August. Doesn't support the story of Delta having a major negative impact on the economy

    And of course with the current system of government-granted patent monopolies, we pay them extortionist rates to lie, as with Purdue Pharma and the opioid crisis

    Contrary to Greg Mankiw in the NYT, maybe Europeans work less than people in the United States, not because of tax rates, but because they want more time off
