It is to think of “national development” as a one-off achievement, rather than as a perpetual process of ongoing renewal. Three obstacles also must be removed. They are how to coordinate the formulation and execution of a regularly updated national development policy, how to capture and incentive-compatibly channel the gains to continuous infrastructural renewal in a mixed public/private economy, and how to control macro-financial conditions in a manner that renders investment in continuous industrial renewal privately rational. We must make three institutional reforms in response: a National Reconstruction and Development Council (NRDC) that combines all cabinet-level executive agencies into “an FSOC for continuous national development,” a National Investment Corporation (NIC) that designs price-signal-impounding and equity-stake-justifying financial instruments in connection with national infrastructure projects, and a “Spread Fed” that restores the Regional Federal Reserve Banks to their original status as a network of regional development banks. Here is the “three-legged stool” on which “Building Back Better—and Beyond” can succeed.","PeriodicalId":88850,"journal":{"name":"Challenge (Atlanta, Ga.)","volume":"74 1","pages":"11 - 21"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83750226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This analysis of a recent public opinion poll jointly conducted by Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, National Public Radio, and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation examines serious financial problems facing U.S. households with employment loss during the COVID-19 pandemic, and how problems differ by income. The authors discuss their findings and their implications for the future: (1) about two-thirds of households with employment loss during COVID-19 report facing serious financial problems, including most households earning less than $30,000 in 2019; (2) serious financial problems differ markedly by employment loss and income levels; (3) these problems were reported despite trillions of dollars distributed in aid, signaling additional help is needed; (4) these problems are likely to continue and worsen over time, as more than half of households with employment loss reported using up household savings by August.","PeriodicalId":88850,"journal":{"name":"Challenge (Atlanta, Ga.)","volume":"52 1","pages":"3 - 10"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76342986","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While some speculate that there will be a “machine-art” explosion as the trigger for new heights of turnover and profit in this sector, others believe art will never be truly created by machines so that investment will just be into a bubble destined to burst once the initial hype is over. And while the former are convinced that the unprecedented Artificial Intelligence revolution will also open up a new epoch of art that may put an end to the presently known art world, the latter insist that any aspiration to have machines as authors or even “inventors” of art is, in the literal sense, an artificial construct launched by a few who want to reap easy and fast profits.
