I was once hired at Cato to be part of a "climate change" red team. But was fired right as I was supposed to begin, because they 'discovered' my public statements against "same sex marriage."
Similar to the “safe & effective” slogan for vaccines, I always wonder if these people are not that smart & true believers in these garbage studies or if it’s more nefarious. I assume someone knows what they’re producing is a lie & they surround themselves with dummies.

Who funds CATO? Follow the money.
Nicely done. Cato should be ashamed of itself. We should never trust any of their studies, unless they repudiate this one.
Sociopaths don't feel shame. They're not normal humans.
Beautiful writing, and powerful.

Love the footnotes and Intro / Framing. Banger.
Excellent work
European studies have very different results.
