Ashoka Mody: "The latest roun= of wrangling between Greece and its European creditors has demonstrated y=t again that countries with such disparate economies should never have ent=red a currency union. It would be better for all involved, though, if Germ=ny rather than Greece were the first to exit." Read more...

Greece

Mohamed A. El-Erian: "Europea= taxpayers, both implicitly and explicitly, have substituted for all sorts=of private creditors, depositors and investors in Greece. This European so=ialization of private liabilities will continue, forcing the euro zone clo=er to one of two extreme outcomes: a fiscal union or the exit of Greece fr=m the single currency. Either would be unpleasant for several of the Europ=an Union's other members." Read more...

Civil Rights

The Editors: "President Barac= Obama visited a federal prison on Thursday, two days after sharply critic=zing the U.S. criminal-justice system in a well-received speech. It is bot= surprising and gratifying that many of his proposals are gaining bipartis=n support in Congress. Yet what Obama didn't say in his speech is no less =mportant." Read more..=

Law

Megan McArdle: "I come very c=ose to thinking special prosecutors and similar roles should simply be aba=doned, given how frequently those appointed seem to get distracted from th= crimes they were asked to investigate. ... But if we do not abandon the w=ole 'special prosecutor' approach, we should be clear when they are appoin=ed: Secrecy is an option only when it's clear lives are at stake." =span class="topic-read-more" style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;text=decoration:none;color:#00b9e7;font-weight:normal;font-size:17px;line-heigh=:1.6em;text-transform:none">Read more...

Health-Care Reform

Ramesh Ponnuru: "A group of C=tholic nuns, the Little Sisters of the Poor, wants relief from the Afforda=le Care Act's mandate that it offer contraceptive coverage to its employee=. The nuns lost a court case this week -- and everyone who cares about rel=gious freedom should be troubled by the reasons why." Read more...

Climate Change

Peter R. Orszag: "A new book =hould shift our narrative on climate change. The old story line: People ne=d to worry about climate change because doubling the atmosphere's concentr=tion of carbon dioxide relative to its preindustrial level would probably =aise global average temperatures by 2.7 to 8 degrees Fahrenheit. The new s=ory line: We should worry because of the risk that the changes will be cat=strophic." Read more..=

Investing

Barry Ritholtz: "Pension fund= should keep it simple, manage a basic global allocation of assets, and wa=ch costs. There simply is no reason to try to reinvent investing when ther= is a perfectly viable and preferable option." Read more...

Economics

Noah Smith: "Supposedly pro-b=siness policies, of the type constantly urged on us by conservative think =anks and rightward-leaning economists, are just not that effective in gene=ating growth. ... Most of the low-hanging fruit, in terms of business-frie=dly policies, has already been picked." Read more...

Middle East

Daniel Gordis: "Far from inte=national headlines, Israeli society is being shaken by the tremors of an e=erging religious battle, as ultra-Orthodox members of the new governing co=lition test their political power." Read more...

Transportation

Adam Minter: "Environmental a=tivists are struggling to coerce the capitulation of airlines that sympath=ze with their goals. Rather than treat the industry as an antagonist, acti=ists would be far better off trying to encourage its ongoing attempts to b=come more climate-friendly." Read more...
