...Plan E system is not unusual, but in the U.S. it is more common among towns further to the west. Older eastern towns have been reluctant to forego their traditional structures for modern management methods.

Instead of calling for massive public works projects like Fred Harris and the other leftist candidates, McCarthy sounded almost Repulbican when he said we should forego government intervention and simply share more evenly the existing jobs--perhaps by shortening the work week to 35 hours...
