“Almost anyone beyond a certain age has noticed that institutions go irreversibly bad over time. Impolitic as that conclusion may be, we do have sight, memory and reason, and they concur on this point. The real problem with institutions, we should understand, isn’t the humans populating them, but the structures themselves. And before I go any further, please ask yourself if you’ve observed such institutions reform themselves. The answer, of course, is no. You’ve seen outsiders march in with chainsaws, but not internally generated reform; such is the nature of the beast.” (10/17/25)
