Looking Backward

Edward Bellamy

This is a cool quote from MLK, who was an anti-monopolist. Also interesting is that he was a fan of Edward Bellamy's Looking Backward. https://t.co/epbml2Rcnj

@AJentleson @econliberties Agreed. Have you read Paul Sabin’s Public Citizens on the origins of the modern public interest infrastructure? https://t.co/RWKqzl6zkt

Tim Lee

Fundamentally, all the scare stories about allowing Australia newspapers to form cooperatives turned out to be false. Example is Tim Berners-Lee's warning that the law would break the web. What it did was revive journalism. https://t.co/iXbjGXgcr2

Destructive Creation: American Business and the Winning of World War II

Mark R. Wilson

@GeorgeSelgin It's all over the historical sources I looked at when researching the 1930s and 1940s. I've never even heard of a historian suggesting it wasn't massively impactful. Destructive Creation by Mark Wilson is one random book that comes to mind.

I can think of a certain book by @ProfKateJudge, "DIRECT: The Rise of the Middleman Economy," that is relevant to this point. https://www.harperbusiness.com/book/9780063041974/Direct-Kathryn-Judge/ https://twitter.com/joeymattingly/status/1534516748946391040

I'm very much enjoying "When McKinsey Comes to Town" by @PekingMike and Walt Bogdanich. It's very well-written and an easy read.

@ETTC19 Untrue. "Amongst the novel objects that attracted my attention during my stay in the United States, nothing struck me more forcibly than the general equality of conditions." - That's the opening to Democracy in America by Alexis de Toqueville in 1835. https://t.co/wrZxbzJYsK

Dispute Settlement Reports 2004

World Trade Organization
Matt StollerMatt Stoller

1. At this point, it's worth considering whether to disband the World Trade Organization. An utterly disastrous process on vaccines and treatments led to a predictably dumb and useless end. https://t.co/PN5Tq5k4QU

Book Cover for: Economics, Paul Krugman

Economics

Paul Krugman
Matt StollerMatt Stoller

Fascinating how Larry Summers attacks Lina Khan and small business, promotes layoffs, defends monopoly roll-ups, and encourages mergers in the same thread as he says he supports Biden’s antitrust agenda. Also tangles with Paul Krugman. Economics is science! https://t.co/VbVbuAyn0n
