Rick Rosner: Yea – I agree with that. And what we’ve seen over the past century or more. People love information. People will be draw to increasingly rich information source. People love secret or taboo information. So, there’s the – many of the traditional, American, institutions that had flourished through the first half of the 20th century were undermined by people learning to much about them or by people learning about their internal contradictions or them being at odds with rapid changes in society during the second half of the 20th century.
