I can't tell if you're being sarcastic, but a common criticism of The Economist's values is that they have never seen a problem that could not be fixed by deregulation and privatization.

Like the second-to-last paragraph here, for instance: http://www.theguardian.com/media/2005/aug/21/pressandpublish...

For their 2015 outlook issue, The Economist asked readers to submit predictions by Twitter about the year's events. One prediction they published said, "The Economist will continue to recommend market-based solutions for everything."
