Yesterday, on his new blog Bet On It, Bryan Caplan posted this article. I, of course, agree fervently with every specific policy proposal listed here, and although I am less convinced of the tradeoffs between advocating for helping the poor through government, and helping the poor by hurting less, the first two thirds or so are absolutely fantastic. However, the first two thirds are undermined by the last third, where he engages in psychoanalyzing why the people who prefer helping the poor by redistribution favor what they do.
Wise.
Caplan's blog is inaccessible. Seems he didn't pay Wordpress to keep up the domain.
He changed it over to Substack soon after -- this was a transitional period.
