This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Entirely possible. I said I'm skeptical that it is better than standard models, not that I'm sure. But, in the absence of other evidence, I'm inclined to believe the economists who actually understand economics, rather than some rando on Twitter saying "called it!" - stripper or not.
Isn't the very article about economists taking a closer look at the general sex worker index more than merely saying someone called it?
