I missed your AMA on reddit! 1) As you are not a Statist, along what specific lines do you differentiate your inclinations from those on the Right who call for a smaller government? (And I am referring to the sincere ones on the Right). Is it which functions you'd see reduced, or a fundamental idea of its role? 2) As a fan of democracy, what role do you see for markets and free exchange of goods/services between individuals within a socialist/communist system? Per above, how do you feel this is differentiated from those on the Right who believe in democracy as well? (Again, those who you'd believe to be sincere). Thank you!
