Public Policy Round-Up

  • By Bill Conerly
  • In Public Policy

If you’re wondering about the minimum wage, a good argument on the subject is in today’s Wall Street Journal, written by Gary Becker and Richard Posner, a Nobel laureate and judge respectively.

Inequality got you down?  Read Tyler Cowen’s New York Times column.

We asked Bill Conerly to look at one of the major factors limiting the growth of our business.
