I’ve never been a proponent of tort reform (beyond the adoption of a rule of loser-pays [2]). But the facts reported in this post by Steve Landsburg [3] enable me nevertheless to understand why tort reform is supported by so many wise and well-meaning people.

Nick Schulz interviews UC-Berkeley economist Enrico Moretti [6].
Cato’s Tad DeHaven offers his case against U.S. corporate welfare [7].
GMU Econ alum Adam Gurri tells stories of progress and stagnation [8].
