Move fast and break things. That’s the original operating philosophy of Facebook founder and Meta mogul Mark Zuckerberg, and it seems to be the operating procedure of President Donald Trump in these first weeks of his second term. 

That makes a certain sense. In a largely successful society, unrocked by revolution, institutions come to be in need of repair, revamping, and reconstitution. Just as tools rust, barnacles adhere, and roofs leak, institutions and professions, government agencies, and private industries need to be reformed or even abolished.
