GELFAND’S WORLD--He sure knew how to deal with parking meters. The irritation of the parking control system here in Los Angeles is one issue that is worth talking about in a broader context. It provides a clear example of why obvious reforms are nearly impossible to execute if we leave them to the City Council and the mayor. However, there may be a way to fix things.

In early September *The New York Times* published a provocative [op-ed](https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/06/opinion/housing-regulations-us-economy.html) that answered this question from a market-oriented perspective.

Hillary Clinton is better than Donald Trump – yes? Sure, she voted for the Iraq War. And sure, she was smart enough to know better. But she had a political future to think of. And – yeah – Bill Clinton had sex with an intern (*an intern*) when he was President of the United States – but he was so good at getting under the skin of Republicans, and, you know, winning elections.
