@martinwolf_ Hi Martin, you might find this new economics blog interesting - latest piece covers how antitrust and regulation keep capitalism viable in the long term by balancing the opposing powers of markets and the state https://t.co/tSmh8uooK0

[Dave Foster @comp_tension]

This from @martinwolf_ in the FT shares a similar philosophy to my latest economics blog piece about how regulation safeguards the long term viability of capitalism https://t.co/sU6y6lxXb0 find the blog at https://t.co/MMpUzeHTRK

[Dave Foster @comp_tension]

A huge army of economists and lawyers quietly work away on market regulation. Actually, they are saving world from self destruction. A new economics blog @TimHarford https://t.co/MMpUzeHTRK
