Policy

Can you diagnose a market failure where there isn't really a market?

That includes hurting businesses policy-makers think should be hurt.

Heaven forbid policies have purpose and consequences.

“Russia is suffering a demographic decline on a scale that is normally associated with the effects of a major war.”

You won't read it anywhere else, and it appears to be true.

Each year, "4,000 of us will drown. A significant percentage will be fishermen found floating with a high blood alcohol content and an unzipped fly."

Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't.

The best explanation of Big Shitpile I've seen yet.
