The view is out-dated regardless and only matters for historical interest.
Since the institutions of America have already been uprooted and remade by the generations of the 1960's, 70's and 80's, it moronic for, say, the generation of the 2000's to do anything but further remake them.
If we lived in 16th century England, the question of what to do with our living history might matter.
"Bankers, for example, used to have a code that made them a bit stodgy and which held them up for ridicule in movies like “Mary Poppins.” But the banker’s code has eroded, and the result was not liberation but self-destruction."
Or, perhaps, to reconsider anew forgotten ideas and examine their applicability to modern life.
The idea that "the old rules don't apply" had a lot to do with the decision process that obliterated Wall Street.
Sure, the rules from five year ago might be bad and the rules from fifty years might be worth a look. But the rules from five hundred years - "take only gold, take a pound of flesh from those who don't pay" certainly don't.
We've got choice now. No reference to "the value of tradition" can remove it.
