Andrew Yang was my favorite democrat to watch this election cycle, partly because he is the candidate I would most like to be friends with. That's why I was so disappointed to see him adapt to a tour de force in last week's debate.
I assumed that, having won his way into the first debate where all the candidates would share the same stage at the same time, Yang would seize this moment to explain the underlying problem that motivated his candidacy.
In case you missed it (and you would not have seen it during the debate!), Yang's basic message is that a large number of working-class Americans have been left behind and the culprit is automation. Yang insists that this problem will become much more pervasive. As with the Industrial Revolution, this will bring tremendous upheaval and disruption.
