		The Swiss economy is set to grow significantly more than previously thought, new figures from the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development indicate.
		However, growth will remain relatively vigorous, sustained by business investment and private consumption, which is likely to be boosted by dynamic job creation, while the economy's competitiveness will also stimulate exports, the report said.

	Overview of Economics—Getting Organized: Command, Market, and Mixed Economies
		In a command economy, also known as a planned economy, the government largely determines what is produced and in what amounts.
		In a mixed economy both market forces and government decisions determine which goods and services are produced and how they are distributed.
		However, the government's influence in the economy stems from the amount of money (raised in the form of taxes and borrowings from the private sector) that it spends and, through various forms of welfare, redistributes.

	Project Renaissance, Mixed Economy
		In command economies, which are less responsive to or even unresponsive to changing wants and needs, unwanted goods pile up; providers of unwanted services go through the motions with their efforts wasted; all the while actual and even vital wants and needs go into shortage or are unmet altogether.
		What makes a market economy "good," far more efficient than government command could ever be at immediately making the detailed adjustments of a million-and-one changing conditions which keep most people and resources usefully engaged at their best or near-best uses, is the Directory service provided by freely changing prices and wages.
		We thus propose that such a "mixed economy" would, in fact, be far freer than the purer free market our ideologues are demanding, aside from whatever further gains in human freedom can be obtained by really effectively addressing some of those public needs which currently are not being well taken care of.

		Abstract: Our hypothesis is that the combination of hunting, fishing, gathering, herding, and cash sectors of the economy continue to define the prevailing lifestyle of Arctic indigenous people.
		A further hypothesis is that the persistence of a mixed economy is both a matter of necessity and choice.
