Thank you for the kind words, Charles Whalen. Institutionalism has always been at least a generation ahead of its time. Plays hell with one's career path if one is seeking the recognition of the leaders of a herd of clueless yahoos, but is more fun than running with the yahoos.

 Since Elizabeth Warren has made wealth

 Dugger offered wealth tax suggestions in JEI articles some
 time ago.
