https://www.economist.com/open-future/2018/08/29/the-literature-of-liberalism?fsrc=scn/fb/te/bl/ed/ The Economist has somewhat lost it way. However this is a pretty cool article on some of the great thinkers. There is one error I notice of Alexander Hamilton being American. I am sure he was Caribbean. Hi father live for a while on the Island of my birth. There are some big thinkers not mentioned.
Yes, Hamilton was born on Nevis and came to New York as a teen. But given that everything he did thereafter was in the U.S. (or what he would help to make become the U.S.), I don't think it's inaccurate to call him American.
The biggest weak spot in my quest to learn everything about everything is history. I just read the first paragraph of Alexander Hamilton's Wikipedia page. I didn't know half of all that, and I have no idea how one human being could possibly accomplish all that in one lifetime.
