Wasted food or failed demand? Could be heavy handed, but a strict program could enforce the health quality.

And you don’t see the very real problem with that statement?

People have to want to eat healthy, and in lower SES that is not as common.

Ha I get it, I tell my kids "if you're hungry you'll eat it" all the time. I know how effective that is(n't).

As Ezra and Matt investigated these sorts of things through their careers, they found that their previous talking points don't hold up to much scrutiny, and they migrated towards the policy center. Being smart and honest will do that. Too bad Ezra will never take any responsibility for his Sam Harris debate era self, who was a total SJW douche.

I remember one of Matt's talking points of many years ago on Vox, about how the stock market doesn't matter to anybody. He doesn't own any stocks, and nobody he knows owns any stocks. I bet he doesn't say that anymore.

Gary Kasparov, no friend of socialism, had this to say:

An NYC mayor who doesn’t believe in capitalism is like a Secretary of Health who doesn’t believe in vaccines. Sorry, bad example!

Capitalists will be his downfall. I think he's about to learn a valuable lesson.

One may be given, but whether he'll learn anything is open to question.

As if I needed another reason to hate this guy.

[Mik]

Ain’t gonna happen.
