Build, Interrupted: A Conversation with Ezra Klein
Ezra Klein joins Roman Mars to discuss his book "Abundance," arguing that the primary obstacle to building necessary infrastructure, housing, and clean energy in the U.S. is not technological or financial, but self-imposed legal and procedural hurdles. They explore how processes intended to protect have become tools for delay and veto, using examples like California's high-speed rail. Klein suggests learning from other countries and applying the efficiency seen in emergency responses to normal, urgent priorities.
