Reasonable Disagreements: Warren And Holder Want To Break Tech And The Supreme Court

Senator Elizabeth Warren wants to break up tech companies; former Attorney General Eric Holder wants a future Democratic President and Congress to pack the Court, which would break it. What do Hoover Institution fellows Richard Epstein and Adam White think of these proposals? They disagree with both of them ... but they also disagree with one another about how to think about what Google does today. But before they start to debate those issues, they begin by applauding the Senate's move toward confirming Neomi Rao's nomination to the US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit.
