Ah, the plight of externality can explain so, so much. thenewgreen posted a piece from the economist earlier to day about rent seeking, and crony capitalism. I found it strange that they didn't try to quantify massive public subsidy also. It's a little bit implicitly included in some of the analyses, but not nearly to the extent it should be. That dollar McDouble doesn't look so cheap when you and I get to pay for the Medicare patient's clot busting stroke intervention.
