Once upon a time evidence actually meant, you know, evidence, something material and factual you could point to. Nowadays that notion is just too quaint, a relic of a bygone day. When I read this post on new evidence on the effects of increasing the minimum wage, I was excited about the prospect of additional, you know, evidence. Sadly, I was disappointed.
It’s a good enough article and reasonably interesting but it actually is a survey of various sources of additional analysis. I guess we’ll just have to wait for actual evidence.
