Exceprt:

In the abstract, people will support all manner of vague policy proposals. But for many of those same people, what matters most is the obvious follow-up question: Are you willing to pay for it?

The Public Policy Institute of California recently highlighted an example of mismatched responses from a survey of Californians.

“About six in ten adults (62%) and likely voters (60%) favor a state law that requires 100 percent of the state’s electricity to come from renewable sources by 2045,” reported the nonpartisan research organization recently.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
