Yet another example of why I wish legislators would be much more knowledgeable about economics. ("The Law of Unintended Consequences is the one law always passed by Congress/Parliament!")
(Or maybe they do understand economics and just don't care, because winning votes is more important to them than doing the long-term wise thing. But my bet is on ignorance.)
I wonder where Boston-metro would fall on the graph? Around DC, I'd guess.
