Summary

On today’s Ruminant, Jonah once again finds himself agitated by a veritable cornucopia of asininities. From the idea that every problem in San Francisco can be blamed on COVID to our embarrassing balloon response, no topic is safe from his ire. Can every problem be blamed on late-stage capitalism? What is the difference between good politics and good policy? And how should the Remnant advertise itself to the outside world?

Some housekeeping things. The tune at the beginning of this podcast, the license for it is about to

0:45.7

expire. And so the question is, should we keep it? Should we replace it with something else?

0:52.7

Should we have a contest to see someone can come up with a better intro? Let us know in the

upfront and you can misread the market signal on it. Also, keep your suggestions for

2:16.1

ideas now is the time or if you're in the business now is the time to share them. And oh, and I

got to do this other thing. The good people at AEI where I am a scholar and have been part of
