Why I Don't Read The Nation

I generally like my analysis without the heavy doses of naiveté and bias, even if I agree with the overall analysis. Alex Tabarrok highlights such a double-dosing in The Nation:

Christopher Hayes writing in The Nation.

The vast majority of interest groups in Washington, from the Sierra Club to the AFL-CIO to Planned Parenthood, are pursuing what Edsall calls "substantive reform"--attempting to push legislation and enact policies that will provide public goods, protect citizens from harm and redistribute benefits, rights and privileges away from the powerful and toward middle-class citizens and disenfranchised minorities.

And if you believe that, might I mention that if you act quickly I have some land in Florida just ripe for development.

That's why I limit my regular reading to the Financial Times, National Journal, The Economist, CQ Weekly, etc.
