The Myth of the Rational Voter: Why Democracies Choose Bad Policies - New Edition New edition
Bryan Caplan
The greatest obstacle to sound economic policy is not entrenched special interests or rampant lobbying, but the popular misconceptions, irrational beliefs, and personal biases held by ordinary voters. This title looks at how people who vote under the influence of false beliefs ultimately end up with government that delivers lousy results.
296 pages, 51 line illus. 8 tables.
