"new gun laws", what are those?
This past weekend, hundreds of students joined the many thousands of others across the country who will forever carry memories of terror and loss caused by senseless violence.
School shootings have been a constant threat in my life. If we care about our children, we cannot let this continue.

It's a policy choice that we're still experiencing mass shootings on a regular basis. It won't change until the legislators responsible for making those choices are held accountable for the deaths, injuries, and PTSD that occurs with each additional act of gun violence.
It has been 13 years since the lives of 20 children and six educators were taken in minutes by a gunman armed with a Bushmaster AR-15 rifle and high-capacity magazines at Sandy Hook School in Newtown, Connecticut. Two other people were wounded. 🧵

I'm John Fallon, a labor economist on the job market. My JMP uncovers something wild: when chiropractors got licensed in the early 1900s, medical boards responded by making it HARDER to become a doctor.
Why would competition lead to stricter regulations?

Curious what conferences will be like once they have AI review the obviously AI-generated submissions.
Will presenters just hit play and let ChatGPT talk about how OLS can identify causal effects from observational data by controlling for 3 variables?
