With a high corporate tax rate, an onerous regulatory environment and a populist tilt to the
political debate emphasizing equality over growth the US is not,
in my opinion, moving
in the right direction.
Although many over
emphasize the social aspects of such an event, I found the most stimulating conversations I've had
in years happening
in the auditorium tent where borders —
political, spatial, ideological and imagined — were
debated and stretched to their limits through heady discussion from artists and the public alike.
