Democrats want to use government power to make people's lives go better; Republicans respond that people know more than politicians do. We think that both might be able to agree that nudging can maintain free markets, and liberty, while also inclining people in good directions. ↗

If you wait until those weapons pose a direct, clear, present danger to the United States, you've probably waited too long. ↗
