Nantucket Project

At Forbes, John Tamny has a report from the Nantucket Project: "maybe someday readers of the elite media will read positive news accounts of the very rich who, rather than disposing of their fortunes, choose to hold on to their money in order to grow more wealthy; their investment serving as seed capital for future businesses and the jobs they inevitably create." Maybe.

Also: "the audience appeared to tilt left on the political spectrum, and this was largely the lean of the speakers too. But eager to offer some balance with the goal of stimulating thought and conversation, they invited Ed Crane..., co-founder of the libertarian Cato Institute, to speak....Where it became even more interesting was how very much an audience that seemed skeptical embraced Crane's talk. Far from a leper, to observe him throughout the weekend was to see Crane regularly approached by attendees with high praise."
