They have warned us repeatedly. From the imperial presidency and a dysfunctional Congress to delegitimizing opponents and gerrymandering, politics matter too much. Way too much.

I'm confused. What is the difference between government running a grocery store and government owning a share of a semiconductor company? Why would one of these be a good thing and the other not such a good thing?
