Market Power: Deep Doo Doo
http://marketpower.blogspot.com/2005/04/deep-doo-doo.html
Musings by an academic economist on the power of markets and the power over markets. Friday, April 08, 2005. Lawrence Summers is in deep shit at Harvard.

Why would Weitzman go out and find his own shit? The Library of Economics.
