That certainly carries more than a little vibe of paternalistic social
engineering.  But it would probably come across better if the the
author were politic enough to mention that the present system of
corporate capitalism, rather than being the spontaneous outgrowth of a
free market, is the result of a top-down social engineering experiment
at least as enormous and authoritarian as anything he has in mind.  It
would also be nice if he showed some awareness that most of what he
desires could be achieved, not by new restrictions and/or subsidies,
but by removing *existing* subsidies and protections from corporate
capitalism.
