Author of the report: @AmyRynell
Question from a reporter: where will the funds come from for a guaranteed income pilot?

Answer from @Ameya_Pawar_IL: We have billions of dollars for Lincoln Yards, The 78, and police settlements ... the next mayor & city council can find a way*

*paraphrasing
Full disclosure: I am a member of the Chicago Resilient Families Taskforce 👍🏾

💾Stata Tutorial💾

In case it’s useful, here’s a way to write LaTeX table code within Stata and export to .tex

I learned this from @sacksdaniel

\begin{🤓}
First run your regressions and save the results in their own data set

Saving the results is not necessary, but if you ever need to get exact numbers, better to have them in a data set than in a pdf or .tex file
Next, use your results data and write LaTeX code *as string variables*

Use different variables for different columns (tc0,tc1,...)

one observation = one line of code, which is tracked using the `row’ macro

add “\\” to relevant lines

Use “outsheet” to export a .tex file

1) #Israel released a report today called "Terrorists in Suits" about the secret links between the BDS movement and terrorism.

I thought it would be interesting to draw some connections between the report and other things we hear.

2) "The Boycott, Divestiture and Sanctions" movement likes to claim that it is about achieving "justice" for the "oppressed" Palestinian people.

On its face, most people can understand that idea.

3) But BDS is illegal in much of the United States.

"Around half of the US’s 50 states have anti-BDS laws, which in various ways prohibit granting state contracts to companies which boycott Israel."

Thread: Kevin Spacey: The Cabal’s Loose End
#KevinSpacey
1. #KevinSpacey (KS) was an A list actor w/ many leading & supporting roles in Hollywood films & television. I believe he has participated in some very evil acts with many important figures in Washington DC and Hollywood. Kevin Spacey is one of the biggest cabal liabilities ever.

@priyankac19 absolutely wrong! let me expose u only thru ur thread bullet points. U r misleading people abt Netaji’s relation with Bapu&Nehru. Now care to respond to my rebuttal in case u have some substance 1/n cc @vivekagnihotri @RatanSharda55 @Chandrabosebjp @narendramodi
2/n @priyankac19 in ur 2/n, u refer to #Netaji naming his regiments after Gandhi, Nehru & Azad. This again is abt greatness of Netaji & not Gandhi, Nehru or Azad. Priyanka u shud stop perceiving those names to b as great as God & any attribution is only for their goodness.
3/n Priyanka let’s look closely at the greatness of Nehru in regards to #Netaji. Let’s begin with Tripura Convention of @INCIndia . In Tripura convention 1939,Nehru didn’t support Netaji’s candidature for President.

Exciting news! My paper with @michelmorek on The Long-Term Impact of the Earned Income Tax Credit on Children’s Education and Employment Outcomes is now on the Journal of Labor Economics site:
doi.org/10.1086/697477

Brief summary:
We find that an additional $1,000 in EITC exposure when a child is 13–18 years old increases the likelihood of completing high school (1.3%), completing college (4.2%), and being employed as a young adult (1.0%) and earnings by 2.2%.
We find larger educ effects for minorities, kids of single-parents, kids with parents that did not go to college.

Economists already knew that the EITC improved health and test scores of young kids; we show that the positive effects of the program last through young adulthood
