Avik Roy - Prominent American Critic of National Conservatism
Today I speak with Avik Roy who is a US conservative commentator, activist and founder of the foundation for Research on Equal Opportunity https://freopp.org/team/the-freopp-founders-avik-roy/
He has particular expertise in health care reform and has advised Mitt Romney and other Republican Presidential candidates in this area.
He has also been a prominent critic of the national conservative movement in the United States and was instrumental in pulling together something call "The Freedom Conservative Statement of Principles" found here: https://www.freedomconservatism.org/p/freedom-conservatism-a-statement
We talk briefly about health care in the United States, how concerns about Obamacare did not feature as much in the most recent Presidential election as they have in the past, and his view about what the appointments of RFK Jr and Jay Battachaya mean.
We then get in to national conservative v freedom conservative debate. His views on JD Vance, Trump and some of the key areas such as trade, foreign policy and immigration, where NatCons and his freedom cons have different approaches, and whether this is all just a rehash of what Disraeli and Gladstone were debating in the 19th Century.
Hope you enjoy.
