We’re Number...Eight ?

I was talking to one of my favorite people the other day, going on about a wonderful article I’d read. He asked me if it was on my blog so he could read it. “Uh...that’s a good idea. Wish I’d thought of that.”

Sometimes I can be rather dense.

The Social Welfare State, beyond Ideology By Jeffrey D. Sachs

My favorite line in the article ? “Friedrich Von Hayek was wrong.”

Along the same lines, I stumbled onto this article at Wikipedia.

Human Development Index

Not only is it interesting reading, it ties in nicely with the Scientific American article above.

Happy reading.
