Here's an informative article on the guaranteed income bans going on, and how they are contrary to the evidence on direct cash being an effective means to lift people out of poverty. I'm quoted. cnbc.com/2024/07/09/gua…

I wrote this blog to respond to the ill-advised bans on guaranteed income programs going on in a number of states. Policymakers responsible for this are acting on their bias against people with low income, not evidence.

Guaranteed income programs are often more effective than existing government programs; they embody core American values, such as liberty and efficiency. This Urban Wire piece explores how banning guaranteed income programs undermines American values. urbn.is/3UypHdz

State policymakers banning and seeking to ban guaranteed income experiments may be forgoing insights on the most popular, effective—and American—solution to poverty ever advanced in the US. Read my recent @urbaninstitute blog to learn more. urban.org/urban-wire/ban…

@elonmusk Really? A burning cross? This is the most ignorant brand marketing I’ve ever seen. I left Twitter a while back over Musk’s inane management of the platform and only returned today to verify he really posted this. This confirms my choice to head to Threads.

This is exactly why I offer a continuous feedback loop in almost every evaluation I conduct. Interventions and policies that seek to improve outcomes for people are not built overnight, but on lessons learned by people making course corrections based on real-time data.

“At the frontier, progress is made by trial and error and error and error,” says venture capitalist @billjaneway. “Tolerance of error is essential. An exclusive pursuit of efficiency is the enemy of innovation. That’s often why big companies fail.” freak.ws/3oqZMmI
