"...in the winter of 2022 I find myself doubting whether the US will still be a functioning democracy by the end of the decade." Sadly, what seemed like a pessimistic projection 2.1/2 years ago is now reality, making Martin Wolf's analysis more relevant and more urgent. Read it as soon as you can.

Do I need to be told what my beer tastes like? It's not a bottle of wine that I might leave on a supermarket shelf, it's a pint that I bought at the bar. If it tastes rank, I'll take it back. If it tastes good, I'll order another one. This is not marketing, it's preaching to the converted.
