So the Associate Publisher of The Nation sends me an email asking me, “Have any lefty relics gathering dust in your closet?” They’re having a fundraising auction.
As it happens, I do have some lefty relics I’d like to get rid of. I have:
- Keynesianism
- Wilsonianism
- Nationalized health care
- Government Motors
- The idea that the Constitution grants “plenary” powers to the federal government
- The War on Poverty
- Racial preferences
And by the way, when National Review asks me for conservative relics, I’ll have a list for them, too.
