Social Policy with Karl Zinsmeister

Hello, I’m Ben Wattenberg. The old saying goes, you can’t legislate morality. But many problems in America -- from illegal drugs to teen sex -- have the government doing just that. Political elites line up on one side or the other, and PR machines crank out a barrage of buzzwords that inflame, but don’t inform. Can social policy actually fix the problems of society without dividing it further?

To find out, Think Tank is joined this week by Karl Zinsmeister, my very first research assistant, former editor of the American Enterprise magazine, now a fellow at AEI. He is also the author of 'In Real Life: Powerful Lessons from Everyday Living.'

Yes, our new Presidential domestic policy advisor.
