Our readingWhat is a korrent?
Drawn from what Edmund Burke said
government What states are for and what they are worse at than markets and networks: legitimacy, moral hazard, and who may be entrusted with power.
education How children are taught and tested: schools, tutoring, what a lesson at the right level does, and what AI changes.
In other countries, the people, more simple, and of a less mercurial cast, judge of an ill principle in government only by an actual grievance; here they anticipate the evil, and judge of the pressure of the grievance by the badness of the principle. They augur misgovernment at a distance, and snuff the approach of tyranny in every tainted breeze.
