We're alive and kicking here at The Glenn Show! This week my guest is Charles Lehman, research fellow at the Manhattan Institute, who knows a ton about policing, crime and drugs in urban America. Here he shares his wisdom on how to deal with substance abuse.
Interesting new experimental work from @LindaBalcar, @JustinTPickett et al. Black Americans want same or more policing, even as crime falls. This preference looks *more* firm than among non-Black respondents. More evidence to consider in discussions of over/under policing.

This strikes me as a reasonable position wildly at odds with the idea that these protests communicate a message of any moral or political weight. (Not that Ryan thinks they do!) If these are just kids, their opinions don’t matter.

For a counterpoint, @MeghnaWBUR went to Dallas communities undergoing hotspot policing, but "didn't find anyone who said 'this is terrible, we don't want law enforcement.' We were unable to find that voice." People greatly value fair, effective policing. wbur.org/onpoint/2024/0…

The U.S. hit Peak Baby in 2007, which means that next year (barring large and unexpected shifts in immigration policy) the wave is going to start crashing upon the shore. The top-tier schools will be fine but regional campuses and expensive colleges w/no reputation are in trouble

this woman says in a new lawsuit against columbia that she was doxxed even though she sat for a photoshoot with the washington post
My data is "quiet significant" (p=0.86).
If the optimal policy is "close to a ban" you should probably do the near-optimal policy of a ban.
On Tuesday the @FTC issued a final rule that effectively bans noncompete clauses in US labor contracts. Given the wide-reaching impact, there has been (understandably) a lot of debate, and also some confusion. Two issues are particularly contentious. The first is the economic…
@SwannMarcus89 Many people in that top decile refuse to believe that most of the country doesn’t drink much at all. It’s a wild conversation to have. Really fascinating example of social bubbles.
Insurance benefit parity for substance use and mental health disorders has never been closer: Large, medium, and small employer provided plans, CHIP, traditional Medicare Part B, state exchanges, & Medicaid expansion all have it. Need Medicare Advantage to complete the quilt.
How is this the first time you’ve seen one of these? They were around during the Obama years after the stimulus package and they’ve been around under Biden for a while. Learning what? How does this have thousands of likes??
"Quiet quitters": They don't exist in the macro data, they don't exist in the micro data.
Olive Keogh: Quiet quitters are hard to handle because they continue to complete their assigned workload to the same (often high) standard, giving their managers an uneasy feeling but nothing specific to complain about. irishtimes.com/business/work/…
This whole focus on campuses is understandable but misleading, because the ideologies of equity and indigeneity are official government policy. It’s not just confused teens - these ideas and their supporters run our country.
We did start the fire: "A long, intricate, but essentially unbroken line connects that rejection of the liberal university in 1968 to the orthodoxy on elite campuses today. The students of the ’68 revolt became professors—...the “long march through the institutions”—bringing…

Brain dead
As I wrote on Tuesday, the *most* antisemitic thing happening on college campuses right now is the fact that Republicans have goaded college presidents, who now fear for their jobs, into joining the GOP in using Jews as a political weapon. puck.news/newsletter_con…
So to summarize: 1. divestment has no effect 2. divestment isn't practical 3. colleges are only a small portion of the pool of investors 4. any putative effects would be delayed 5. israel doesn't care anyway
But even if THAT had an impact, it is much much smaller than the impact of mobilizing a large fraction of the working age population into the Army. The Israelis are obviously willing to suffer significant economic hardship to prosecute their war.
And then even if it could divest from Israel and it did have an impact, university endowments aren't enough of the market to really matter much anyway. But even if they were, the greater cost of capital would take a while to make a difference in Israeli domestic consumption.
So even if Columbia were to sell all its assets with Israeli ties, the impact would be negligible. It can't really do that anyway because Israel is tightly integrated into the global economy and that means divesting from basically every major company, especially tech companies.
Let's go through the reasons Columbia University can't actually impact the Israeli political process. We'll start with divestiture. If you divest from an asset, its rate of return will improve and other people will buy it at only a slight discount.
