Robert Reich
The
conservative mind sees no role for government other than to police the
nation’s borders and streets. It does not acknowledge a public interest
or a common good, and or even the idea
of public health. Yet there is no way to contain the Ebola virus in
America without a sophisticated approach to public health and a deep
commitment to the common good. In this, as in so much else, we are all
in it together. Be thankful conservatives have not completely
obliterated our collective capacity to act in the public interest.
