Silly Little Country

Mike Munger takes the Occasionally Silly Ezra Klein to the Cleaners

Here.

Golly, Ezra! If only there were....something....call it "Public Choice" theory. There could even be a journal to study this sort of thing. If only there were a university, perhaps one in the DC metro area, that taught Public Choice theory. Let's make one up, and call it "George Mason." If only there were think tanks.... call them "Mercatus" and "Cato"... that publish dozens of articles and monographs every year taking EXACTLY the perspective that Mr. Klein appears to believe he has originated.

Of course the progressives fret about the capabilities of politicians and government only when it ain't going their way.
