Moral Politics

farah

This book is rather verbose, and needs a good trimming. I don't quite agree with his premise of people treating government like a father. 

What did I get from this book?

1. Left Vs Right is not a Good Vs Bad fight. Everyone* is being sincere

2. Moral Strength is an interesting idea. That people who are weak and fail, deserve what happens to them

3. Framing of situations/questions is important. Obvious but critical
