The writer makes a point that is too little appreciated: Our Constitution is not a contract.

Big Tech Now the ‘Fourth Branch of Government?’
The writer makes a fair point: Big Tech censorship and social/political activism may be legal in some technical sense, but they remain incompatible with liberty.
The ‘Good American’
Denis Prager is right. Democrats are exploiting the Capitol incursion as though it were the famous Reichstag fire, blaming it on their archenemy, Donald Trump, and using it to try to extinguish the Republican Party and the conservative movement.
“Though they do not risk being beaten up, are Americans in 2021 as afraid of the American left as Germans in 1933 were of the German fascists? We’re about to find out.”
The Sabotage of Public Education
Mr. Price uses the history of the Follow Through study to show that our public schools don’t “follow the science” in their approach to education.
Kim’s Idea

I wrote in another post today that the long-term consequences of yesterday’s Capitol incursion are hard to guess. But if I had to guess, I’d say the instant commentary captures some of the likely themes. It is simply not possible to have government of, by and for the people when large numbers of the people believe their government is not of, by and for them.
The Capitol Incursion
What are the people in a democracy supposed to do when they feel their interests and concerns are not being represented?

This is probably good news for Google critics. There’s nothing like a labor union to change corporate culture, and nothing like a woke labor union to make a company dysfunctional.
