Perhaps it shouldn't be surprising that interest rate targeting can lead to a "lack of confidence".
When naming something becomes a form of propaganda. I highlighted this article because of the long term budgetary problems which derive in part from not for profits - not just at local but also state and national levels. Still, the article seems to have its own identity issues! It's misleading to attribute misspent money problems to progressive or even libertarian tendencies, as if conservative leadership is somehow immune from the process. Even now, conservatives take advantage of similar strategies to divert taxpayer funding away from public schools for both profit and not for profit educational alternatives.

How important is a political perspective for positive structural change? What's striking to me about this article is the author's belief that important ideas can be successfully associated with political beliefs. Given the political polarization of the present, I believe it's best to separate many ideas from political activities, particularly when it comes to rebuilding viable markets in rural areas. For one, despite temptations to rely on political alignments in such efforts, only consider the damage later on, when productive economic strategies are abandoned primarily because they are aligned with the "wrong" political party.
