If you ask people does money buy happiness, they all get very high-minded and say, well, of course not and they begin to preach to you about love, meaning and other things. But if you examine their behavior you might conclude they not only think money buys happiness, they don't think anything else buys happiness. Economics and happiness have a lot to do with each other. What can we learn and what can economists learn from research on happiness? And what can we learn about happiness from...

They skyrocketed ABC from dead last in the ratings and birthed a new era in public discourse.

New food-related disease outbreaks seem to hit the news every week, but it’s hard to know whether that reflects an overzealous press or an under-performing government lacking funds for adequate inspections. Food safety is further complicated by an increasingly globalized food supply; for example, as much as 90 percent of the fish consumed in the US is imported. Activists want the USDA to monitor slaughterhouses more vigilantly, but the big meat processors say industry can police itself. How...
