Sunday assorted links
1. David Autor on the labor shortage (NYT).
2. Lawrence H. White corrects the record on Hayek.
3. China fact of the day: “…of all countries looked at by the IMF, in 2000 China had the most decentralized government as measured by the percentage of spending that is local.” NB: Better link is this one.
5. The culture that is Serbia? And Straussian Beatles Man We Was Lonely.
6. CDC once again not heeding the science, not even the medical science (much less expected value maximization). And yet further obvious, rookie screw-ups. And where are those Delta-specific boosters?
7. Ross Douthat on the American Empire (NYT).
