1641420737930993666 | Is transit a “public good,” as many fare-free advocates claim? No, it is not. A 🧵 about my latest in @CityLab https://t.co/R24oHWYGlt | 53 |
1639137261403897857 | I've been to a lot of cities, but Bangladesh's capital Dhaka is the most unlivable of them all. The megacity of 20 million regularly has the world air pollution in the world. Here are my words and photos for @CityLab on why that is and what being done: https://t.co/ZOV1OtXiHP | 51 |
1639239940566335491 | A new study on blackouts shows that Venezuela’s rural-urban gap has widened. It also found that rural poverty increased throughout most of the country in recent years, while decreasing in areas clustered around cities. My new piece for Bloomberg @CityLab: https://t.co/PwyCsh1yc7 | 47 |
1641699167293538306 | Study finds that kids who #cycle or walk to school, do measurably better on tasks demanding concentration and that the effects last for up to four hours after they get to school. From 2012, but still totally relevant! https://t.co/hkNee6edQ4 via @citylab @EuCyclistsFed | 37 |
1640973604807487488 | El Bosque Metropolitano de Almeida y Villacís es una farsa, puro marketing y tiene más anuncios, más exageraciones y más falsedades que árboles. https://t.co/ph244uLAq5 Ahora lo dice también desde New York, en Bloomberg @CityLab https://t.co/UAuUeUtlpA | 33 |
1639053590437429248 | Have you heard of “dark stores?” If not, read this, on what Paris is doing to get rid of them. Has your city seen these yet? Via @CityLab https://t.co/S0MYTNdW0g | 27 |
1639312105143779334 | Un nuevo estudio sobre los apagones muestra que la brecha urbana-rural en Venezuela se ha ensanchado. También encontró que la pobreza rural ha aumentado en casi todo el país en los últimos años. Mi nueva nota para Bloomberg @CityLab: https://t.co/hmkqw0074e | 20 |
1639404834867560454 | Celebro la nota de @TonyFrangieM para Bloomberg @CityLab, referenciando mi estudio "Living in Darkness: Rural Poverty in Venezuela", sobre cómo la pobreza rural ha aumentando en el país. Abajo, versión en español #electricidad #crisis #Venezuela #pobreza https://t.co/pT1CnFhaee | 16 |
1641435923727659008 | @DavidZipper @CityLab Economists have a definition of public good that no one else uses. | 14 |
1638641814663237632 | Georgia GOP lawmakers are, on one hand, arguing #Atlanta's wealthiest residents deserve the "right to vote" to secede from the city, while simultaneously passing legislation that suppresses/erodes voting rights for people of color https://t.co/WCePykRxs4 via @citylab | 11 |

1641440614016512001 | @DavidZipper @CityLab You are using a very specific definition to attack a straw man argument that no one using the term is making. Be better | 342 |
1641430235001372672 | @DavidZipper @CityLab Is transit a “public good,” as many fare-free advocates claim? Not if you apply the limited def. of the phrase as it’s used in economics, which you probably weren’t doing in the first place because you aren’t an economist so you were probably using the phrase colloquially. | 247 |
1641425972686626816 | @DavidZipper @CityLab Are roads public goods? They are excludable (Tolls) and non-rival (Traffic) Are pools? (Fee to enter that pays a lifeguard) (Capacity Limits) We decide whether something is a public good based on how accessible (fare-free) and available (frequent) it is. | 235 |
1641478256971984902 | @DavidZipper @CityLab You just defined healthcare as not a public good. Nice job. Just think of all the money you can make charging so much that 30% of the population cannot have it. But I bet that's your aim. | 165 |
1641428419798810627 | @DavidZipper @CityLab "Public transportation is not a public good. It is excludable, because the transit company won’t give you a ride if you don’t pay the fare." Lol so by your own definition if it becomes free it becomes a public good... This piece is laden with contradictions. | 150 |

1641529898022871074 | @DavidZipper @CityLab Hey David, the vast majority of people who say “public good” regarding public transit are not remotely implying what you made this thread about. Hope you had fun though! | 89 |
