To Be An American In The 21st Century
by Ro Khanna via Eureka

Post-Apocalyptic Health Care
by John H. Cochrane via Grumpy Economist
Post-apocalyptic life in American health care is a fantastic blog post on the state of American health care and insurance. (HT Marginal Revolution) Bottom line: American health care organizations can no longer operate systematically, so participants are forced to act in the communal mode, as if in the pre-modern world.

By EPPC Senior Fellow Henry Olsen

The Reexamination Of Security Clearances Was Long Overdue
by Victor Davis Hanson via National Review
Much has been written about former CIA and FBI official Philip Mudd’s recent unhinged outburst on CNN against Paris Dennard for the latter’s credible suggestion that many ex-officials have monetized the fact that they have retained their security clearances.

To reorganize government agencies, Trump should channel Truman
James C. Capretta | RealClearPolicy 
Given the deep divisions between the parties, the administration’s reorganization agenda will probably be ignored in Congress. The best hope to avoid that is to copy the Truman-Hoover model, giving up some control of the agenda to a bipartisan commission.
Trump’s Federal Worker Pay Freeze Misses the Real Problem
Nicole Gelinas, New York Post

President Trump may or may not freeze federal workers’ pay: Last Thursday, he sent a letter to congressional leaders saying that he would, citing “serious economic conditions,” but said later he’d think about it after criticism from some Republicans up for re-election.Trump is right to be concerned about public-worker costs — but a pay freeze is unlikely to do much good or much harm.

The economics of the opioid crisis
Roger Bate | AEIdeas 
Policymakers have clamped down on prescribing practices of physicians and sanctioned pharmaceutical companies producing vast quantities of opioids. The result has been a lowering of legal opioid sales. Reducing prescriptions of opioids should create fewer addicts in the long run and is probably the right policy approach. But it’s a poisonous short-run trade-off.
‘Dopesick’ and ‘The Addiction Solution’ review: Examining an epidemic
Sally Satel | The Wall Street Journal 
The emotional devastation of opioid addiction is staggering. So is the economic fallout. Families can be bankrupted by the cost of in-patient rehab. Sally Satel reviews two books on the epidemic: “Dopesick” by Beth Macy and “The Addiction Solution” by Lloyd I. Sederer.
