The economist can shut down and it will be a vast improvement to the world. Far left rag.

Far left? Most economists consider it center-right, and it has been like that for more than 100 years.

If you regard The Economist as far left I can only assume your politics are so far to the right that you no longer know where the centre is.

It is, and always has been, a socially liberal centre-right pro-business pro-Capitalism news magazine.
