Shades of Gray

Megan McArdle wrote this a few days ago, but the thoughts don't get stale. 

If you are someone who believes that most of the major issues facing our citizens and our government are straightforward and easily answered - please read Megan's post again!  And then, once again.

While I surely have strong opinions on many topics, I readily concede that there are literally hundreds (thousands?) on which I see other reasonable positions - and, I am not clear in my own mind as to which course is most superior.

Thanks to Megan for making this overall shady issue a bit more clear!
