David Brooks is what passes for a conservative at
The New York Times and on
PBS, which is to say, he isn't completely liberal. He does occasionally have a decent insight, try the following from his latest NYT
column.
In a Gallup survey, voters listed dysfunctional government as the nation’s No. 1 problem. In fact, American voters’ traditional distrust has morphed and hardened. They used to think it was bloated and ineffective. Now they think it is bloated and ineffective and rigged to help those who need it least.
Sadly, they are not wrong.
