Key Insights:

* Today’s meaning of “neoliberalism” is the result of the collision of two different applications of the term—to Margaret Thatcher, and to the Washington Monthly…

* Intermediary institutions are very suspicious to liberalism, at least in its pure form…

* Liberalism has a bias toward atomizing solutions to social problems…

* YIMBY vs. NIMBY is the fundamental political debate in America today…

* Sometimes the answer will be command-and-control, sometimes the answer will be deregulation…

* Yuval Levin is good…

* Detach liberalism from centrism or moderation…

* Liberals are thinking about things that are important and visionary about productivity, and Biden is listening…

* Hexapodia!
