It reminded me a little on one of the Startrek movies (First Contact). When the visitor of our century saw the Enterprise she asked “Such a ship must be very expensive” and Captain Picard answered “We moved bejond money in our times”.
It seems that the idea of a “common good” once liberated from doctrines or party rule is a viable (and profitable) way to work with. stw

Yes, what Pradeep said. Plus the link itself doesn’t appear to go to a valid URL.
I know you’re sick, so don’t worry too much about it. But I really want to read that article.
Guess I’ll have to use The Economist search function. Horrors!

Hugh,
the link to the Economist article is prefixed with “mailto:” which is making the url to open up the mail client (outlook etc).
Please do fix the link.
And yeah, thanks for the link Looks like a fairly informed article.
