- ulysses and sunk costs
- I'm sure there's a good word play in there somewhere, but I can't
currently think of it, so I'm dibbing the whole concept. Basically, I
would like to suggest that our so-called fallacy of sunk costs is just
this way for present selves to protect their decisional pathways from the
meddling of future selves.
- banking on en bancs
- Man, I don't know what this paper would be about, but it would be a
fun title.
- what law and economics can learn from chemistry
- A gallingly better-than-thou topic (I'd be tongue-in-cheek about it,
promise). But man, there are all these things I want to critique about
L&E! Like, for instance, how L&E deals with economically efficient states!
Chemists use similar concepts too, we just call them "equilibria."
But we consider other things, like the time needed to actually reach the
equilibrium. Which L&E theorists never seem to do! They just seem to
assume that efficiency is instantaneous! There are many many other
things. And they would fit oh so well into such an essay.
