    I’m not sure there is a “win” here but there is certainly something to be gained from both posts. Will is correct that Kling’s example is not enough, but Kling does raise an important argument. Voice and exit both seem like components of freedom rather than one or the other being all-encompassing. One without the other is often not enough.Report
