A Monday mix of noteworthy posts from around the site:
Here’s a question for a Monday morning: How dope are you? Find out with our drug-war quiz.

He’s baaaack: Remember Libertarian hedge funder Cliff Asness? He’s popped up again, this time to rehash some tired old points about health care. MoJo assistant editor Nick Baumann offers a response.
