economics articles

[Michael Perelman <michael@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm just going over the new American Economic Review.  I was struck by how
many articles economists are now publishing that supposedly prove the
destructiveness of people foolishly manipulating the government.  The
culprits are usually those special interests who want the government to
regulate industry, tax corporations, or protect people.

One article explains lobbying as a justifiable defense against the
confiscatory taxation.
