Gr8 post. “If there has been this great disavowal, where is the evidence? How have the casebooks changed, how has legal education changed? And where are the renunciations of Coase, Posner, and other canonical works, by a new generation of L&E scholars?” lpeproject.org/blog/two-dogm…

Today, Andrew Miller explains how consumer profiling creates new patterns of advantage and disadvantage in the market. But because these practices are often invisible to consumers, those on the losing end can't organize against them. lpeproject.org/blog/coalitio…

During the early years of the AIDS crisis, government policies effectively excluded women. Today @LPEblog, @veenadubal interviews @AzizaAhmed on how feminist activists forced recognition of the epidemic’s reach. Plus, I had no idea Posner was so obsessed with sex.

In 2015, Martin Shkreli became the most hated man in America by raising the price of Daraprim – an antiparasitic essential for immunocompromised patients – from $17.50 to $750 per pill. How much does Daraprim cost today? $750 per pill.

"The benefit was designed not to maintain a healthy market for hospice, but to disentangle hospice from market logic. To achieve this, we need to do more than stabilize the hospice industry through greater competition—we need to create spaces where care remains uncommodified."
Today, Elle Rothermich explains how hospice care, once rooted in service and compassion, became fertile ground for private equity—and why antitrust scrutiny alone can’t restore what was lost when care became subject to market logic.

Grateful to join this Law & Political Economy series on corporate power in health care. I delve into the ideology behind “value-based payment”—its roots in managed care, neoliberalism, & a flawed theory of health care regulation decades in the making.
