Because ultimately that's why tarrifs and congestion pricing are, it's a claim that there is an externality to doing something that is not reflected in the price and you have to add in. While that makes work for reducing cars, only state power can remake an entire economy.

At least the conservatives have the confidence of constantly messaging their bad ideas, the minute pundits like Matt stumble into a good position, like immigration, they beg the party to run away from it the minute polling goes sideways. Don't let your memes stay dreams.

The play book is industrial policy and strictly disciplined capital.

In terms of tariffs, yeah they're fine as a tool of industrial policy, Biden literally did it as part of the IRA and no one was squealing about it then.

You either think Hamas is a product of political factors, which means they don't exist without those factors, or you're a racist who thinks Palestinians just naturally make a Hamas. Pick one.

Gaza's problem isn't the prison gang the warden propped up, it's the fact that it's a prison.

The problem unions have is bad political education and focus on political support for Democrats over membership drives, something entirely by product of Taft Hartley stripping them of their class character.

Laughing at the idea of "the big unions" in a world with single digit membership.
