Quotation of the Day…

… is from this November 30th Facebook post by my Nobel-laureate emeritus colleague Vernon Smith:

The author asks: “How would I ameliorate the tragic dilemmas that come with our complicated Mexican border?”

You might start by considering de-criminalizing the possession and drug use in the US, which originally fueled drug production in south of the border countries, that led directly to the corruption and instability of their governments, and to the refugee problem.

DBx: Today is Vernon’s 93rd birthday. Happy Birthday, O wise and brilliant one! May you have many more.
