I’m guessing these appointments kill the idea of the Senate foregoing confirmation hearings and giving Trump 100% recess appointments …. https://t.co/nGpi7UCiQ4

For the pre-90s trend see here https://t.co/vfRpSlUAoa Basically mid-70s is when everything started to go to hell, income inequality-wise.

PS I’m not saying you can’t raise pre-tax incomes at the bottom-that’s what tightening the labor market through immigration control is all about. But to rein in *inequality* you probably also have to lower relentlessly growing incomes at and near the top. Maybe AI will do it

The Gini index of inequality has been steadily rising since the mid-70s, through Dem and Republican presidents, boom and bust. It goes up and down (it went down a bit during Trump too) but mainly keeps rising. It’s almost as if we can’t do much about it! https://t.co/QHrUIz5yBo https://t.co/QaRYXNEiIK

“The reduction in inequality is tremendous” during Biden/Harris. Depends what “tremendous” means. If you use Gini Index, it’s back to pre-Covid level (2019), but still way above what it was in 2010, let alone 2000. (https://t.co/QHrUIz5yBo) https://t.co/hWbVm2M3Wt

“The reduction in inequality is tremendous” during Biden/Harris. It is? If you use Gini Index, it’s back to pre-Covid (2019), apparently because of declines in income at middle and top. (https://t.co/PiQDRTiGjE) https://t.co/hWbVm2M3Wt

At 4-way stop just now, @Waymo arrived late. Car on right had right of way. Waymo charged ahead anyway. Who’s going to stop it? You can’t yell at it. It doesn’t know guilt. In metaphorical (and soon, literal) sense it’s thrown the steering wheel out the window.
