Brits do behavioral economics

What a bunch of Maroons....(Moron's in Bugs Bunny speak).  Also U of Chicago people.  Thaler was a prof of mine and is now (according to Tyler Cowen) in the lead for a Nobel.  He was a weiner.  Particularly when compared to real Nobelists that I studied under like Stigler and Fogel.

There is some substance to the research but he has let himself be beguiled by dreams of a clean, tidy and thoroughly fascist future where people are 'nudged' (aka:  manipulated) by wise and far seeing bureaucrats.

It's thoroughgoing evil and the negation of humanity and free will.

As I said, a weiner.  A big, beer soaked bratwurst of one.  Mustard anyone?
