Lowering Blood Alcohol Levels on Our Waterways: Means and Costs
The intoxication of recreational boaters has become a serious problem. The usual policy prescription to this type of problem is to step up monitoring efforts to deter excessive drinking. However, this may be too expensive. This paper examines an alternative strategy-substituting lower blood alcohol limits for monitoring blood alcohol levels. Statutes that lower blood alcohol limits would be especially useful in areas such as recreational boating …
Controlling the abandonment of automobiles: Mandatory deposits vs fines
Public choice in private markets
Politics, Time, and the Laffer Curve
Why should a rationally motivated political decision process generate an inverse relationship between tax rates and tax revenues? There would never seem a logical reason for increasing tax rates beyond maximum revenue limits. In this note, we explain how such a position can emerge and show why, once in such a position, political decision makers may find it difficult to escape

Price Controls, Binding Constraints, and Intertemporal Economic Decision Making
A constraint on a decision variable is normally thought to be binding only if it prevents that variable from taking on its unrestricted current equilibrium value. This paper establishes that this is not true when decisions are intertemporally related. In such a decision-making environment, imposing a price ceiling, for example, which is greater than the current equilibrium price can be binding in that it will alter current price. Likewise, the re…

A Pollution Control Approach to Analysis of the Balanced Budget Amendment
Fiscal Pollution (excessive budget deficits), in certain aspects, is like environmental pollution. In both types of pollution some, possibly most individuals would be willing to reduce their own pollution if others would do the same. In the case of fiscal pollution individuals would be willing to give up their special interest demands if others would reciprocate in kind. But as long as individuals are forced to pay for the programs of others ther…
