I agree with Robert Reich

He's "gotten in to trouble" for saying some things at UC Berkeley a couple of years ago. And as a Obama adviser, there is some reason to worry. Except that taking his comments in context, he's correct. There are tough decisions that need to be made, at some point. Hence the title of the post linked to. Politically, I understand why he's in trouble, because politics is about telling constituents what they want to hear, not the truth.
