How did she ever get hired by the NY Times anyway? Most of the other opinion columnists there are just stupid or incurious, but Weiss is actively deceitful.

babypolis posted:i have no idea what the point of this article is. she wrote only 3 small paragraphs, more than half of it is just a quote. if nothing else its insulting what a lazy loving hack she is she's saying that government regulation is actually bad, and it would be better for everyone if everything dangerous was totally unregulated so that people would be more careful

every McArdle piece is just "hey, what if libertarianism was good and governments were bad? now, I'm not necessarily saying that's the case, but suppose it's true and that everything you've ever heard to the contrary is bullshit? really makes you think, huh?"

The fun part about this is they come up with an annual increase of about $2 trillion and project that forward till they get to their total. It's completely arbitrary, and the funny part is it's as much as Trump's tax cuts will add to the deficit.

A year's subscription to the New York Review of Books, read critically, is one of the best liberal educations available.

Oh for sure. And they have enough contributing editors in place that I assume the journal kind of runs itself now with Silvers's old team. It's liberal to the core, so like I said, read it critically. But the range & depth of topics and the seriousness of the cultural writing makes it, like I said, one of the best liberal educations available. The LRB is better but smaller each week, and I think the NYRB has the edge on literary reviews (as opposed to pure political writing). Also, check out c-spam's Periodicals Chat Thread, that would be a good place for this.
