We need to call out the "economics deniers", like Nancy MacLean, Pope Francis, Barry Obama, Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders & Nancy Pelosi.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017
The economics are settled: the minimum wage hurts lower-wage employees, welfare is morally hazardous, government healthcare is unaffordable.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017
The economics are settled: protectionism is anti-consumer, high taxes are anti-growth, rent control shrinks housing supply, public ed sucks.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017
Pope Francis is not only economically illiterate; he is politically illiterate. He sees the Russian-US "alliance" as dangerous. No alliance.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017
I wonder what tipped Pope Francis off: America's "endorsement" of Russian involvement in Ukrainian separatism, Putin's backing of Assad?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017
Pope Francis must believe in the nothingburger of Russian meddling on behalf of Trump's election--even though polls showed Trump way behind.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017
One might think a "peace-loving" Pope would welcome good relations between the top two nucllear powers. No, his highest priority is migrants— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017

Pope Francis confuses symptoms with disease. The migration problem is exacerbated by foreign intervention in the internal affairs of others.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017
#MyChiefComplaint is in filing a complaint, my call is forwarded to other departments, I get placed on hold and eventually get a dial tone.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017
Why are govt-favored third-party payer or govt single-payer systems so much more expensive & lower quality? https://t.co/mJtHxqw3bz— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017
Because consumers don't directly pay most costs. "Use it or lose it", "free services", etc. distort the economics of healthcare.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017

I see the NYT is engaged in summer reruns; I'm bored with the same old same old contrived "news stories". "Game of Trump"— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017
Well, the good thing about Donnie's kerfuffle is Trumpkins are no longer talking about a Trump family political dynasty. "Jay Sekulow"— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017

Show me the money, left-fascist.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017
No, it's about a government or others taking credit for individual accomplishment. We don't need the nationalistic bullshit.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017
No, the govt should not be spending taxpayer money promoting the goods and services of selective enterprises. Corrupt! "Made in America"— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017

Trump Derangement Syndrome conspiracy theorists are making something over a mistaken inference on when coverage starts. "Secret Service"— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 16, 2017
It's the season of fake news to Nancy MacLean's fake history of James Buchanan. MacLean's issues are with Founders' constraints on majority.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) July 17, 2017

Planned Parenthood Can Advertise on Twitter But Not Pro-Life Groups
To be fair, I have occasionally written pro-life Tweets, and I am not aware of any attempts to censor them. I will say that although its discriminatory policy on ads is unfair and probably not to the advantage of stockholders, and I'm less likely to promote my own tweets with them. Twitter is certainly in a competitive industry, and this policy provides an opening for more tolerant vendors.
