Supply and Demand (in that order): Burtless: Two Economic Mistakes in One Sentence

Supply and Demand (in that order). Monday, March 30, 2015. Burtless: Two Economic Mistakes in One Sentence. Brookings' Gary Burtless writes.

A widespread failure to consider the economics of health reform has led Republicans to push legislation to (unwittingly, may we suppose? Promote socialized medicine, and Democrats to oppose it! The new Republican-sponsored bill. The great political question is: which party will consider the economics first? The White House statement.

Supply and Demand (in that order): December 2014

http://caseymulligan.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html

Supply and Demand (in that order). Friday, December 12, 2014. Program participants sometimes OVERestimate disincentives; good new book. I commonly hear it claimed that health insurance assistance does not discourage work because the rules are too complicated for people to understand that work does not pay. This claim is full of errors of logic and fact ( see here. And scroll to Q8). But let's look at one: why should we assume that people underestimate work disincentives rather than overestimate.

Supply and Demand (in that order). Friday, August 29, 2014. The best way to read illustrated ebooks? For multi-device users, amazon's free kindle app is nice. You can buy a book once and view the same book (including your personal bookmarks and notes) on PC, Mac, ios, android, and more.
