Neither loans nor subsidies are dirty words IMHO.
- AnthonyMouse 3mo ago> In my mind it's all a coordination problem. But that's the point. It isn't. Electricity costs more in the evening than during the day and there is a technology that can profitably be used to arbitrage the difference. There is no coordination problem at all, people have the direct individual incentive to buy the technology, on credit if necessary, without any form of government subsidy or involvement whatsoever.
- actionfromafar 3mo agoThat cow is looking too spherical for my tastes. Credit is another thing which is highly intertwined with goverment involvement.
- AnthonyMouse 3mo agoWhich has what to do with whether there is a coordination problem in this specific case?
