Justin Wolfers(@JustinWolfers):The scarier story isn't a president firing a commissioner over bad jobs numbers. It's what happened last week, quietly, with no front-page coverage: our statistical agency actually put out a number shaped to please the president.⁣ ⁣ That's not a bad data point. That's the loss of a shared source of truth.
