Um, possibly. I consider it a beautiful, natural thing but feel free to moderate me if you so choose 😉

Thanks for bringing this comment thread back on topic, Tom. That may well be the case: I suppose that by appealing to partisan politics they are more likely to get support for their proposal from politicians. Still, if there are compromises in the system I would have thought you’d want your plan to start out uncompromised.

Is it me, or is what you just said absolutely filthy?

Hi Tom,

Although that is definitely true, there is a belief that the focus of the discipline was not on what was “ex-ante” socially optimal. There are incentives in the discipline that push macroeconomists away from focusing on what some people view as the fundamental role of macroeconomics.

Rauparaha is saying what some of incentives may be methinks

It would be a beautiful tagline – but I’m sure whatever we have now is equally sexy

Two-handed economics is the one true economics 🙂
