Chicago on Obama

The influence of U Chicago on Obama. Fairly interesting article. Some thoughts from the end concern me:

"Obama comes from the tradition that thinks you can get your way on social justice and economic issues without affecting productivity very much—and that's simply living in a dream world," he says. Obama and his economics team "are very smart, but the problem is these high-IQ guys always think they can square the circle; they always believe they can beat the system with a cleverer system, and they always fail."

Yup.
