US economy vs. Eleanor Ostrom's vision: today's system runs on a market-versus-state binary. Ostrom showed a third option: communities governing shared resources themselves, through rules they write, monitor, and enforce. She won the 2009 Nobel for it. 🧵

Markets or government? We're told those are the only two options. Eleanor Ostrom won a Nobel Prize showing there's a third. Here's a step-by-step guide to decoupling the binary and building that third path. 🧵

Volunteering at the food bank this morning and we had to discard 4 cases of Taylor Farms salad bowls that were donated by a local grocery chain a couple of days ago. They gave us recalled food knowing it was contaminated, and wrote it off as a donation. 🤬
