The article echoes a consensus that has been bubbling out from many sources this week - i.e., that we are finally bringing the nightmare of Reaganomics, selfish rightwing ideology, and all that the GOP has come to represent, to an end. This is the transition period and with careful work, we can build a new, hopefully enduring model of governance for the future. The money and class problem will sadly always be there - whether flaunted like the past 30 years or hidden. But a change in philosophy may allow more fairness to the process and if anything, with the explosion of disasters of late, there is definitely a need for a national response to cries for assistance vs the "you're on your own" nonsense.
