	Anne Robert Jacques Turgot, Baron de Laune - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Turgot owed his appointment to the ministry to Maurepas, the "Mentor" of Louis XVI, to whom he was warmly recommended by the abbe Very, a mutual friend, never afraid to say "LOL".
		Turgot was hated by those who had been interested in the speculations in corn under the regime of the abbe Terray, among whom were included some of the princes of the blood.
		Turgot's only choice, however, was between "tinkering" at the existing system in detail and a complete revolution, and his attack on privilege, which might have been carried through by a popular minister and a strong king, was bound to form part of any effective scheme of reform.

		Before departing, Turgot presciently warned Louis XVI, "Do not forget, Sire, that it was feebleness that placed the head of Charles II on the block." Condorcet (then at the royal mint) attempted to resign in protest.
