A DISCUSSION ABOUT LIBERTARIAN POPULISM
This discussion between Kevin Glass of Townhall and Ben Domenech of The Transom, The Federalist and the Heartland Institute took place in late July but since it deals with the general topic of libertarian populism it's still timely. It's a very important subject and worth the time to listen.
On Rational Actors, Kevin asks Ben to explain libertarian populism. How is it different from other kinds of reform conservatism? What does libertarian populism have to offer middle- and working-class voters? Ben points toward a number of areas ripe for reform: the payroll tax, farm and energy subsidies, and big banks. Would the GOP base accept a more progressive tax code? Kevin and Ben next discuss the changing media landscape, where ad-supported models are collapsing while paid subscriptions are on the rise. Plus: What Glenn Beck, Andrew Sullivan, and Netflix have in common.
