Mass for Shut-ins: The Gin and Tacos Podcast
News:Politics
Guest: Mike Konczal (@rortybomb) returns with his new book, Freedom from the Market. We take a look at all the great things government used to (or could) do a pretty good job of providing for Americans but no longer does because we've turned them over to The Free Market, which isn't well-suited to provide them at all. It's a great blueprint for a better world, and we talk about where the political will to do it might come from.
A full unedited version of my chat with Mike is available on Patreon, because capitalism.
