Andrew J. Redleaf (an old schoolfriend who runs a successful hedge fund called White Box Advisers) and Richard Vigilante (who hired me as his assistant back when he was articles editor of National Review in 1986) have just launched a blog called “Capitalism Betrayed: Saving Capitalism from Bankers, Bureaucrats, Conmen, and Congressmen“:

The great danger now is that even on the free-market side, the conviction that capitalism failed will wilt resistance to the government’s efforts to hide its own role in the crisis and institutionalize even more deeply the flawed ideas and corrupt practices that led to catastrophe in the first place. The purpose of this blog is to put up a decent fight against all that, and if we have to go down fighting have a good time along the way.
