** Economic Democracy Weekly
------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to our latest Economic Democracy Weekly! Back in the early 1980s, Oingo Boingo sang, “There’s nothing wrong with capitalism/There’s nothing wrong with free enterprise,” but these days even students at Harvard Business School would beg to differ. Today, an Economy Remix article looks at some of the ideas about capitalism that surfaced at a recent conference organized by Harvard business and public policy graduate students. This week, we also offer an account of a comprehensive economic development playbook strategy to promote racial equity being advanced by racial justice advocates in the Minnesota statehouse and a primer for nonprofits that may be considering taking on foundation support in the form of Program-Related Investment (PRI) loans. Lastly, we bring you a policy story that looks at President Biden’s infrastructure bill, and examines how corporate tax loopholes helped create the nation’s enormous infrastructure gap in the first place.
