To Lure Foxconn, Wisconsin waives environmental regulations.  (The Heartland Institute, 10/16/2017)

The National Center for Public Policy Research is a communications and research foundation supportive of a strong national defense and dedicated to providing free market solutions to today's public policy problems. We believe that the principles of a free market, individual liberty and personal responsibility provide the greatest hope for meeting the challenges facing America in the 21st century.

The Caesar Rodney Institute.


i.e., free markets and individual liberty


Cohen's essay was published by thin-skinned (3rd paragraph) Heartland Institute, one of the world’s leading free-market think tanks.  (Yup, they're also big on individual liberty.)
