Lies, Damn Lies, and Statistics

Incorruptible Mass

Today, we will be discussing how unfortunate it is that data often doesn’t drive decision-making, despite claims of economic reasoning. We’ll cover a few upcoming ballot measures, including: unionizing Uber and Lyft drivers, increasing the tipped minimum wage, and addressing widespread misconceptions around progressive policies that supposedly lead to dire consequences—though data often proves otherwise.
This is the audio version of the Incorruptible Mass podcast, season 5 episode 61. You can watch the video version on our YouTube channel.

You’re listening to Incorruptible Mass. Our goal is to help people transform state politics: we investigate why it’s so broken, imagine what we could have here in MA if we fixed it, and report on how you can get involved.
