" ... F.A. Hayek warned us that fashionable statist policies were leading us to a “road to serfdom.” It is now unlikely that the new roads to serfdom will come from a return to the communism, or the fascism, of the past. They will likely come preceded by the road to corruption, where the morass of the regulatory web will be used to shackle enemies and reward friends. ... "
" ... In the last two decades, China has developed a new kind of economy, different from the old statist model of Mao and his generation. The rigid collectivism of the past has been softened, and partially displaced, by a new entrepreneurial culture. China is learning to tolerate private enterprise, risk-taking, and merit-driven inequality. But the “new men” who have emerged with this new economy are not always agreeable to the old guard.

This seems to be already afoot with the Central Bank Digital Currency work that the Fed is undertaking with private partners. Work on standards and a national strategy for blockchains and multi-party systems will continue as these involve co-ordination across enterprises and across countries. ... "
" ... Years ago, at a conference in France, a government official explained to the attendees that France had oil because its diplomats scoured the world for supplies. The German economist next to me said, “We just buy the stuff,” highlighting the split between statist and free market approaches to energy security. Indeed, as the case of Germany, South Korea and other countries demonstrate so clearly, energy dependence does not necessarily translate into poor economic performance. Some would even argue the reverse is true, that being an oil exporter likely brings on the famed “resource curse.” ... "
