Sure, Mr Brooks

Just got done reading the mildly interesting bit by David Brooks posted to our Collegian Columnists Facebook group. He doesn't seem to say much of real implication except for...

Yet they set off my Burkean alarm bells. I fear that in trying to do everything at once, they will do nothing well. I fear that we have a group of people who haven’t even learned to use their new phone system trying to redesign half the U.S. economy. I fear they are going to try to undertake the biggest administrative challenge in American history while refusing to hire the people who can help the most: agency veterans who are registered lobbyists.

Here the true colors show! Brooks isn't really some moderate worried about overconfident government. He's just another neoconservative (ie: a Trotskyist who saw the error in their ways and - instead of ceasing such stupid views as historicism and Manicheanism - just went to the other side) looking to get his lobbyist buddies into power and office. Way to play!
