    Volume 19: The Efficient Market Hypothesis

    It's Why You (Probably) Can't Beat the Market “The stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient,” – Warren Buffett As a society, we have decided to invest our time, our currency, and some of our greatest minds towards the task of beating the market. Teams of Ph. D’s sit in New York, Chicago, Greenwich and elsewhere, looking for any tiny edge they can exploit. They combine form a giant machine, taking in information, spitting out prediction

Without roads, electricity, water, internet and health care, I both wouldn’t be able to

    Cut Corporate Taxes, Discourage Hiring

    Once upon a time, somebody proposed the elimination of the charitable deduction against income for US Federal income taxes. Doing so makes a lot of sense; it has little economic rationale, exists largely to benefit the very wealthy, and the "charitable" label is used to reduce taxes for many reasons that are not very altruistic. In any case, this proposal was never more than symbolic; the charitable deduction is the true third rail of our politics. But the resultant cries of
