• City Planners Run Amok | Hoover Institution

  On these tough questions, the UWS proposal lays a goose egg. The City’s planners have lulled themselves into minimizing the effect that this one constraint (the storefront limitations) has on everything else. Price controls, minimum wage laws, and rent stabilization regulations also impose “only” a single restraint each. But aggressively applied, each can, in short order, wreck agricultural, labor, and rental markets respectively by blocking key profit-making strategies. These frontage limitations are equally dangerous. Tuyukhey never operate in isolation. Retail establishments have to worry about how to meet this requirement when faced with a myriad of other legal and business constraints.

• What newsrooms should learn from Kodak | yelvington.comLot’s of experts like to point to Kodak as a case study for business disruption, what is missed in the analysis is that Kodak did exactly the right thing, they shifted from film to digital and became a leader in the point-and-shoot market. What makes Kodak unique is that the company was disrupted twice in a very short period of time, first with film to digital but then again when camera phones exploded. I’m not sure any company could have survived this set of circumstances.tags: blog

• “Wages Must Fall!”: What All Good Keynesians Should Say, Bryan Caplan | EconLog | Library of Economics and Liberty

  The gloating is easy to understand.  After all, nominal wage rigidity is the driving assumption of the Keynesian model.  Unemployment is just a labor surplus; since wages are the price of labor, the fundamental cause of unemployment has to be excessive wages.  And as long as the wage rigidity is nominal, you can neutralize it by printing money or otherwise boosting demand.

• Schumpeter: University challenge | The Economist

  Popular anger about universities’ costs is rising just as technology is shaking colleges to their foundations. The internet is changing the rules. Star academics can lecture to millions online rather than the chosen few in person. Testing and marking can be automated. And for-profit companies such as the University of Phoenix are stripping out costs by concentrating on a handful of popular courses as well as making full use of the internet. The Sloan Foundation reports that online enrolments grew by 10% in 2010, against 2% for the sector as a whole.
