The best Labor Day graph - worker productivity & compensation grew together when unions were strong, but when unions declined the rate of productivity growth didnt spike. The only thing that changed was worker compensation, which stagnated. https://t.co/kZrwHx8GkS pic.twitter.com/mltb1MShy4— David Sirota (@davidsirota) September 7, 2020
Hoover, of course.
a radiologist and Hoover Institute fellow who regularly appeared on Fox News is now advising Trump on coronavirus, questioning mask-usage, pushing CDC to discourage testing asymptomatic people, and claiming children can't transmit the virus https://t.co/x2unqhTnY8— Rachel Cohen (@rmc031) September 2, 2020

The question is "will the combination of market and government incentives continue to make it more appealing for legacy automakers to subsidize Tesla than to compete with it?"
Reminds me of a story from the Roadster days that's in Ludicrous: The Unvarnished Story of Tesla Motors. When one of the first hires with manufacturing experience came in he found engineers buying ball point pens from Office Depot and using the springs to jerry-rig trunk latches! https://t.co/7LQFgj1khp— E.W.

By no stretch is this true: ‘Elon Musk, has found himself in a situation that, with just a bit of a stretch, fits the definition of a monopoly.’ https://t.co/DDRIBfuzF5— Russ Mitchell (@russ1mitchell) September 6, 2020
Posting this for those who don’t know it exists. It’s a list of Elon Musk’s promises and performance. To be clear: It does not list his accomplishments. I double-check anything I use and have found it thus far to be highly accurate.https://t.co/pSQGgHrL9P— Russ Mitchell (@russ1mitchell) September 7, 2020

For years, Fox has worked to undermine and discredit the work of other newsrooms that have reported damning details about Trump. But on Friday, something different happened: The network tried to undermine the reporting of its own Pentagon correspondent. https://t.co/skc0JRLgDh— Jay Rosen (@jayrosen_nyu) September 7, 2020
In Colorado, we take double voting seriously and refer all suspected cases for legal enforcement. If it makes sense, I will include @realDonaldTrump in the referral for prosecution.

Instead of blowing up things for a gender reveal party, the parents to be should hand out wallets. If there’s a dollar inside, it’s a boy, if there’s 72 cents, it’s a girl— Professor Sarah Parcak (@indyfromspace) September 7, 2020

In a dictatorship, the state media tells you the sky is green. In a failing democracy, the free press tells you that one candidate says the sky is blue and the other candidate says the sky is green, without mentioning which is correct. https://t.co/pXFE7oUB6a— Garry Kasparov (@Kasparov63) September 7, 2020
