  • The Klein interview

    Appreciated the Ezra Klein interview for its exploration of Klein’s ideas, concerns, and background. It helped me to better understand Klein’s approach to the ideological challenges we face, which is important given that he is one of the writers willing to think deeply about many aspects of our political reality these days.

    David Remnick has publicly said he is *against* universal healthcare. He supports the privatization of health services. Remnick has the same opinion on healthcare as most Republicans!
