“Self-interest can't be taken out of politics. Nor is there such a thing as an understandable 'will of the people'. While we may share common goals, we often differ substantially on how to get there or the exact shape of the end point. These types of disagreements can't be wished away and they're not simply the product of the malign influence of special interests. They're fundamental to collective life.”
