That's what I get for trying to talk about politics

Yeah, that whole "let's replace government entitlement programs with cash" thing? There's a big conversation on it going on over at Snarkmarket.

Sure, sure, Matt gives you twenty times the background I do, and they talk about politics and social policy far more often than I do, and they have a far more substantial readership than I do. . .

Oh, hell. No more politics for me. Books and lit mags may be a small corner of the world, but it's mine, dammit.
