After Jay joined Left in the West and wasn't posting all my favorite goodies at 4&20 Blackbirds anymore, I kind of lost track of what he was doing. I checked in on LiTW with some regularity, but not enough to feel like I was really getting vintage Touchstone, you know?
This post at LiTW fills that void. If you care at all about America's middle class, health insurance and health care, or just common decency, you owe it to yourself to go have a read. And just in general, if you're looking for a highly literate, well-reasoned progressive blogger, you should be keeping up with most things he writes. I know I'll be better about it in the future.
