• California home prices called ‘rational’ when climate is factored in

  24-06-2018 07:00 via ocregister.com
  
  Everyone knows a key reason you pay up for California housing is the impressive climate.
  Chapman University researchers now have some math to prove it.
  Veteran economist Jim Doti and some of his students set out to see how county-by-county home values looked when traditional metrics — median selling prices and income levels from 2016 — were mathematically meshed with unorthodox ones — a U.S. Department of Agriculture “natural amenities” score and the proximity to th

• The real problem with immigration and welfare

  03-06-2024 09:12 via ocregister.com
  
  As an advocate for freedom in immigration, one of the objections to my position I hear most often is: “immigrants abuse the welfare state by taking from a system they haven’t contributed to.” 
  This objection relies largely on a myth. Demagogues make it sound as if immigrants have virtually unrestricted eligibility to welfare, comparable to native-born Americans. But immigrants’ eligibility for welfare programs is much more limited than most people think. Legal immigr

  In a loser’s-bracket, must-win game Sunday night at the Women’s College World Series, UCLA and Stanford staged a game befitting the sport’s grandest conference. Great pitching. Big hitting. Clean fielding. Even late-inning drama.

  Want to have a kid or three?
  Want is a key word here. Contrary to some pop culture chatter about the supposedly expanding number of young adults who don’t want kids, at least some new polling suggests the opposite might be true. Not only do most people who can have kids want them, the desire for bigger families – three or more kids – is more common than at any time in the past half-century.
