Thursday assorted links
1. Is the claim of increasing alcoholism based on flawed data?
2. Poverty and housing insecurity along Jefferson Davis Highway. By the way, did you know that a 1963 law required North-South streets in Alexandria to be named after Confederate generals, “insofar as possible”? And in one poll, a plurality of African-Americans think the statues should stay.
3. What does the CBO say about cutting off CSR subsidies? NB: We do not know if this is correct!
4. The Haitian dollar as an abstract unit of account. And viewing the 2015 eclipse from the Faroe Islands.
