Quotes by John Cassidy (?)

“A common reaction to extreme events is to say they couldn't have been predicted”
― John Cassidy, How Markets Fail: The Logic of Economic Calamities

“Relying on the market to provide both private and public goods will always lead to underprovision of the latter.”
― John Cassidy, How Markets Fail: The Logic of Economic Calamities

“The point is clear enough—public goods and decreasing cost phenomena cause private market decisions to go wrong. Market prices will fail to approximate true scarcity values in terms of wants; they will be loaded with misinformation, and producers’ profit calculations will leave out of account much of the private benefit associated with public goods. The ‘invisible hand’ will fumble: people’s decentralized market choices will not efficiently cater to their tastes.”
― John Cassidy, How Markets Fail: The Logic of Economic Calamities
