Quite a claim in today's Economist. Forgotten by whom? People who never heard of Kipling?

superb intro from Janan Ganesh:

FT article says: Having transformed the car business with his technical flair and his eye for logistics, the genius from the Bay Area tried the same in Washington. He had a record of supporting a different political party to that of the president who appointed him. But no matter. If the bloated state could adopt the efficient methods of this avant-garde industrialist, all would win.
In the end, Robert McNamara, the Ford man turned Pentagon chief during the Vietnam war, was a tragic failure in government. His name is still a byword for the misapplication of cold reason to the messiness of public life.
Will Elon Musk, in his quest to rationalise the state, do much better?

What a good reminder that it can actually work to make noise about the terrible things* Trump does. *helps if what he does is nominate a sexual predator universally reviled by the entire body tasked with voting on the nomination

Strong vibes of Dominic Cummings' band of... "misfits". Likely a very similar outcome.
