Should the United States attempt to massively grow our population?  What would a program for population growth look like? Vox founder Matt Yglesias joins the show to discuss his new book, One Billion Americans.  Why is a larger America better for both America and the world? How could we encourage families to have more children? How could we incorporate more immigrants into society?  What other problems do we need to solve along the way before a billion Americans can happen?
