Are there fiscal conservatives in the Democratic Party? I hope so, this is a great idea. I know there aren’t any in the Republican Party anymore. Not many actual Republicans either!

This is 100% true and it’s far easier to fix than “getting rid of billionaires”. And I just give you credit: I’m fairly sure you said this would be bad when the decision was made.

Billionaire families have spent $1.7 BILLION on the 2026 midterms so far — a 5,200% increase since the 2010 midterms. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day. Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.

We seem to be fairly short of competent policymakers in this country. And not just on the right. I do love the spending multiplier being raised. Especially because the contortions the left and right go through to use it to prove their, and only their, point.

Both of those examples required changes to our constitution, which is how a change like this needs to be done in order to be legal. I’m glad you picked them. Want to do this? Start the process. I think we can all agree after the last 18 mo that the constitution is important and should be protected.

The hard part here is the constitution of the United States. The income tax required an amendment, a wealth tax would too. There is zero chance you can get that. Please: you’re a good man with a good message, don’t use the red meat. You can win without that, purely on your merits.

This is exactly where we need your voice sir. This is not opinion you’re stating: it’s fact. And it’s wrong for Trump to do this.

Trump has denied disaster relief for Illinois following severe storms in August. Trump approved a request from Indiana for damage resulting from the same storms. One is a "blue state." The other is a "red state." No other president has politicized natural disasters the way that Trump has.

This is a joke: but living in Washington state for 12 years now I need to ask Vancouver BC or Washington? It’s a joke because anyone not born in Washington state would never ask that. I didn’t even know there was another Vancouver until I moved here. But I can’t say more or they may kick me out.

It’s not the name that’s the issue: you could call it anything. It’s how the program works. You’re talking about totally changing one of the only long term successful program we have ever had. It already has challenges due to demographics shift.

True. But minor adjustments is once thing, totally changing the program just seems unwise and far less likely to get the necessary support.

Dan Rosanova @danrosanova.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Except that social security is actually structured this way, so what you’re proposing is not actually social security: it is something else. We can have that debate as a society, but I don’t see it going anywhere useful given our inability to agree simple things. The program works fairly well as is.

@robinwigglesworth.ft.com A Fabulous Debt is fantastic! I like the analogy of repo as plumbing. I use this in my own work which powers a lot of financial tech. I point out that if your power goes out in the middle of the night you probably go back to sleep: if your toilet backs up you do something!

Early voting is already underway in some states. From now until Nov 3, I urge you all to... 1) Help get out the vote 2) Protect our electoral machinery from interference 3) Not succumb to complacency, defeatism, or cynicism We are the only ones who can end this nightmare.

James Grant has reviewed A Fabulous Debt in the WSJ! Unsurprised that he is sceptical of my generally favourable view of public debt (and don’t really agree I’m misinterpreting Hamilton’s “public credit immortal” line) but he’s a legend so I’m chuffed anyway. www.wsj.com/arts-culture...

‘A Fabulous Debt’ Review: In the Name of Good Credit

In the 17th century, the Dutch invented perpetual bonds. Some are still yielding returns today.

The actual arguments are generally about property rights that go back at least to Alexander Hamilton and the founding of our nation. So while this may feel good to push for, there is a lot of conflict with the actual structure of property rights in this country.

@robinwigglesworth.ft.com A Fabulous Debt is such an entertaining read. Filled with wonderful little bits like “Galbraith would later become President Ronald Reagan’s ambassador to France; it is unclear whether the inspirational ducky came along.” 👩‍🍳💋
