The damage that half-remembered Schumpeterian “creative destruction” has wrought on mental models of economic change is profound. It’s basically been forced backwards in people’s heads to “destructive creation”. You don’t need to break stuff to encourage progress.

After three years of debating how to best mimic the US IRA, EU discussions are now shifting to how to keep pace with Trump’s deregulation spree.
