The economic/political discussion nearly always centers on
how government should do everything versus how government should do less and
leave more to markets.
But those arguing for markets too seldom actually implement
needed solutions in our communities and nation.
It's time to get past the old Cold War argument.
Of course government should be limited in proper ways, of
course markets can do many things better than government, and of course markets
depend on good government policy for safety and the rule of law.
But there is another piece to fixing the world: the
non-governmental, non-market-driven action of individuals who see a need and
set out to make a difference.
