This was a very interesting podcast. I struggle with most politicians because they never really seem to give you a straight answer. Having said that, this interview gave me some insights into the liberal ideology. I would challenge Freakonomics to give the same interview treatment to someone on the right like Speaker Johnson, Senator Josh Hawley, or Representative Jim Jordan. Mr. Dubner does try to be balanced and ask hard questions, but it is clear that he is 70/30 left to right. It's his podcast so he can do as he pleases, but I'd like to hear the counterpoint treated fairly as I know Mr. Dubner can do.
I would love to hear a Freakonomics deep dive trying to understand the Republicans today and what they even want / why they think their approach will work. It feels like it’s just become a cult of personality around Trump. How true is that? What are the internal fault lines?
Please help me understand what is far left. it seems his ideology is upholding the founding fathers dream of a country made up of people from all over the world escaping tyranny and wanting to be treated with basic human dignity,
The Declaration of Independence states,
“ We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness”
(Updating the language to today would say that all people are created equal)
What ideas of Senator Booker do yiu not agree with? I would really like to know.
The one where he was OK letting in 30 million illegal aliens. The ones where he puts other nations ahead of our own citizens. The ones where he votes in lockstep with every bad policy Democrats want to enact that will ruin the country.
some user name, This is just repeating innuendo and propaganda, Please give me specifics of how any of this was done, this just sounds like the fear mongering that people who want to control others use, I am sure that you are capable of critical thinking and fact checking, Please give me let me know facts,

Booker is a far left liberal ideologue

Thank you
Booker is an embarrassment. Sparticus he ain't.
I'm excited to listen to this week's episode and thank you for the book recommendation. I'm excited to get that before the new school term starts.
