Too Bad They Couldn’t Get Bob Dole for the Ad
Those lame Super Bowl commercials have nothing on this one. (HT: Don Boudreaux)
"One thing is clear to me: the orthodox and unvarnished Chicago School of economic theory is on life support, if it is not dead"
More settling economic debates by declaration and without regard to the evidence. When you make declarations like this it is best to do your homework. Consider the following: The Post-Chicago theoretical advances are well known to be built upon the foundation laid by Chicago School founders like Aaron Director — it is simply misleading to ...

The Boss Settles It
Is the Ticketmaster/Live Nation merger anticompetitive? Does it present an opportunity to test whether the DOJ will adopt the evasion of constraint theory of monopolization which I’ve criticized? These are academic questions. The matter has been settled by the Boss: A final point for now: the one thing that would make the current ticket situation ... The Boss Settles It
A Different Form of Competition
A DC area blog reader sends the following update on Inova’s successful attempts to forestall entry in Northern Virginia: The Loudoun County Board of Supervisors voted yesterday to reject a proposal by HCA Virginia to build a hospital in Loudoun, capping more than five years of fierce debate over how best to meet the rising ... A Different Form of Competition
More Hayek (and Buchanan), Less Keynes
Dick Armey has a nice op-ed in today’s Wall Street Journal. The piece, titled Washington Could Use Less Keynes and More Hayek, echoes points I made recently in criticizing the stimulus and advising President Obama on good stuff to read. Armey writes: Sound money policy, [Hayek argued], allowed the disparate knowledge of millions of economic ... More Hayek (and Buchanan), Less Keynes
Does this count as socialism? Maybe it’s fascism.
Oh, those monikers always confuse me. So much seems to hang on the right label. When does government intervention in the economy become so extreme that it is appropriate to label it socialist? Here at TOTM we’ve had this discussion before. But these labels are unhelpful–what matters is the economic effect of regulation. Call it ... Does this count as socialism? Maybe it’s fascism.
More Evasion of Pricing Constraints as Antitrust Violations: Vertical Merger Edition
I’ve criticized elsewhere what appears to the the FTC’s new “evasion of pricing constraint” theory of monopolization emerging from Ovation (see also here), N-Data, and Rambus. I expressed some concern that this theory had no limiting principles and was detached in important ways from sound economics: Here are a few examples of conduct the FTC ...

Zaring on the Panic of 1907
With an antitrust angle to boot: The Panic of 1907, published last year by Robert Bruner and Sean Carr, is a good blow by blow account of the action stations nature of a financial crisis, in this case one that began with a freezing of the credit markets, blew up with an ill-timed effort to ...

Is it just me, or is Brad DeLong little more than an ideological hack? Krugman, too.
Hey, what a shock: Brad DeLong cites to a cursory and useless critique of the Efficient Market Hypothesis and declares it, with the author, “refuted.” Here’s Brad’s cite; here’s the original “refutation.” The complete list is absurd (there are five purportedly refuted doctrines, including “the case for privatization” and “individual retirement accounts.” Seriously? Yep.). Perhaps ... Is it just me, or is Brad DeLong little more than an ideological hack? Krugman, too.
Pssst Wall Street: Change the Name from Bonuses to "Making Work Pay" Credits
President Obama, widely admired for his willingness and ability to engage in nuanced analysis, painted with pretty broad strokes when he attacked the bonuses recently paid by Wall Street banks: One point I want to make is that all of us are going to have responsibilities to get this economy moving again. And when I ... Pssst Wall Street: Change the Name from Bonuses to "Making Work Pay" Credits
Seriously, Alpha = 0? Have You Read the Bill?
Not to harp on the same point over and over, but can anybody look at this list from the stimulus package with a straight face and claim that the absence of inefficient government spending (HT: Peter Klein)? $1 billion for Amtrak $2 billion for child-care subsidies $50 million for the National Endowment for the Arts ... Seriously, Alpha = 0? Have You Read the Bill?
Stop Brad DeLong!
Few people in my small sphere of the world are taken as seriously as Brad DeLong, while still being as much of an ass as he is. The latest stems from his juvenile criticism of this masterful analysis of the stimulus situation by John Cochrane. Brad’s juvenile criticism is here. The thing is, it sounds ... Stop Brad DeLong!
