Keep in mind that, above a certain level of subsistence, much of your welfare springs from your inner stories and narratives, not from concrete goods and services. Your real advantage in life, if you are born sufficiently wealthy, is your ability to tell yourself beneficial stories.
— Tyler Cowen
The Test Tank is an early incarnation of what became the Growth & Justice Blog, now at http://growthandjustice.typepad.com/ I was born west of the Great Divide and living east, I've spent enough time on the planet to develop plenty of contradictions. In more than 35 years of writing, I've never persuaded one person by ridicule or invective—though I've often tried and had fun in the process. The world's not all black hats and white hats, but too much of our discourse is headed that way. Let's find a way across the divide without losing what makes us different.
