From the latest TIME:

Another change in Mamet is that he believes the liberal tenets he grew up with are mistaken. He detests George W. Bush and the Iraq war ? in jujitsu terms, Mamet thinks the U.S. was suckered into expending its energy and exposing weaknesses ? but he’s newly sold on libertarian economics. “I had a revelation during the midterm elections,” he says. “I was making my TV show, The Unit, early in the morning. And I thought, I don’t know what these people’s politics are, but we’re all dedicated to this idea of working together. That’s all a traditional conservative view of economics is. That the free market will always accomplish socially and economically what government cannot. Two people left to their own devices will get along ? because they have to.”
