I'm always impressed by AOC, even when I think she's wrong. But I am really, really impressed that, despite all the goodies and long lunches that must come her way, she still cuts a movie star figure. That's evidence of an iron will.
A bus of Bronx middle schoolers pulled up to the Capitol this morning for a long-planned field trip just a few hours after the government shut down.
All Capitol tours were cancelled as the guides can’t work in shutdown.
So I escorted them in myself and gave them a personal tour. They were great!

What I love about Dean's commentary is his reluctance to take prisoners 😊
If we refuse to consider alternative mechanisms to patent monopolies, then that would be taking an oath to stupidity. We can and should recognize its merits, but also weigh it against alternatives. It's the failure to ever consider alternatives I consider objectionable
Well, other mechanisms would imply something other than a free market. I'm not arguing that a patent system is the only mechanism to incentive innovation, just that it serves a legitimate public interest lost in the free market.
Not sure what use there is for calling to an oath to stupidity though.
