Are there examples of new post-neoliberal public infrastructure projects out there already to learn from?

Yes. Here’s a good place to start. https://moneyontheleft.org/2024/03/01/the-alternative-with-nick-romeo/

Key will be to include the development of new public monetary infrastructures designed to take care of people and environments, rather than to fuel inequality and ecocide. https://www.aaup.org/article/stop-trying-find-money—create-it#:~:text=Such%20is%20the%20thesis%20of,money%20and%20for%20what%20purpose%3F

I thought you wanted better regulation though. Public banking will be the downfall of community banks and have less regulation with the same bureaucratic inefficiencies. Also, the risk would be shifted to local and state with (I think) no insurance except the state taxpayers.

Good read though.
