For decades, universal health care was the great dream of the Democratic Party,
the last big piece of President Lyndon Johnson's Great Society left to be put into
place. From the moment Barack Obama and congressional Democrats
accomplished that in 2O1O, with the passage of the Affordable Care Act — known
popularly as Obamacare — Republicans and conservative activists have pursued
an equally single-minded dream: the total repeal of Obama's signature
accomplishment. So why — nearly a month into Donald Trump's presidency, and
with Republican majorities in both the Senate and the House — does this
ambition still seem so far from coming to pass? The answer, Robert Draper
suggests in his cover story in this week's issue, may have something to do with the
way this battle has been fought for nearly seven years now: "Have Republicans
become trapped by their pledge to do away with Obamacare?"
Elsewhere in the magazine, Rachel Cusk considers what it means to be polite in
the age of rudeness. Elizabeth Royte follows New York's compost king, the
Porsche-driving Long Island mogul who plans to turn much of the city's food
scraps into clean energy. And Jonah Weiner follows David Longstreth as he tries
to reinvent the Dirty Projectors his much-acclaimed indie-rock band, as a solo
project.
Happy reading,

Is the Anthropocene'
Epoch a Condemnation of
Human Interference — or
a Call for More?
By WESLEY YANG
When some climate scientists began saying we'd
entered a new epoch, they meant to draw
attention to human effects on climate. Now, to
their dismay, it's become a tech call to arms for
more disruption. Grant Cornett for The New York Times
