	John Quiggin praises libertarianism « Thoughts on Freedom
		“John Quiggin is a Queenslander, an Economist and a prolific blogger”.
		Since John Quiggin wishes “to use the power of the state as lightly as possible to achieve policy goals” this seems to be one area where the state acts heavily (as opposed to “lightly”) yet achieves good results for everyone.
		Brickbats for John Quiggin for not realising that he is contradicting himself to say he still sees a large role for government in the financing and provision of public goods.

	John Quiggin slimes Windschuttle
		Quiggin had the audacity to call Windschuttle a racist because of a book he is about to publish (or has published) on the White Australia policy.
		Quiggin's political hatred runs so deep that he also made the bizarre claim that Christian fundamentalists were just as dangerous as those Islamo-Nazis who are responsible for the 9/11 atrocity.
		On a final not: Although Quiggin is a professor of economics he appears to have missed the fact that union support for the White Australia Policy was probably motivated by a dim understanding that a rapidly increasing labour supply from Asia would drive down wage rates.

	John and Mary Ann Quiggin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		John Quiggin was born c.1801 - a member of a large family with interests in timber yards and rope works in Douglas.
		His son John Quiggin entered the business (I have seen one dedication signed John Quiggin, printer, dated 1846) but like his father died at an early age - John II died 27 April 1857 aged 31.
		Both John and Mary seemed to be strong Wesleyan Methodists - John was a Local Preacher from 1823 (and possibly before); Mary Quiggin printed the Wesleyan Circuit Plans for many years.

	Warming up the debate (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		John Quiggin has waded back into the global warming fray with an interesting piece on projected rates of global warming.
		John reaches that figure (because his two errors cancel each other out), and agrees that a warming of that magnitude and speed isn't too much to worry about.
		As John Quiggin wants to allow an additional 1 degree C on top of the straight-line extrapolation of existing trends, he is by definition assuming that world economic growth will be twice as rapid throughout the 21st century as it has been over the last 26 years.

	John Quiggin's libels
		Quiggin and his fellow travelling leftists know this and that is why the issue of Letelier’s KGB connection causes them acute embarrassment.
		I put it to Quiggin and other apologists for Letelier that the man’s KGB activities, of which I have only cited a few, are indisputable evidence that far from working to restore democracy to Chile he was in fact working to impose a Castro-like totalitarian state on the Chilean people.
		Quiggin claimed that the CIA was in someway part of the coup.

	John Quiggin - Submissions - Telstra1
		As has been argued in more detail by Quiggin (1995) and Brown (1996), the appropriate valuation procedure for a publicly-owned asset such as Telstra is based on the saving in public debt interest represented by the flow of profits of the enterprise.
		The analysis presented above, along with analyses of recent privatisations such as that of the Commonwealth Bank (Quiggin 1995) and Commonwealth Serum Laboratories (Hamilton and Quiggin 1995) demonstrates that privatisation is a bad deal for Australian taxpayers.
		In the face of such evidence the advocates of privatisation offer nothing more than dogmatic assertions of faith in the market and appeals to fashion, based on the claim that since other countries are privatising, Australia should do likewise.

		Quiggin lunges at Walsh with the statement: “Walsh, on the other hand, appears to have decided that believing in magic is not so bad after all.
		Quiggins’ implicit position is that all truth and light on climate emanate from the IPCC, a para-political body of the UN.
		John Daly, quoted as a leading authority on the Society’s website, uses a graph of US temperature data as one of his key pieces of evidence against global warming on his website (http://www.vision.net.au/~daly/).

	Deltoid » John Lott’s unethical conduct (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		John Lott has claimed that he conducted a survey over three months in 1997 that found that in 98% of defensive gun uses the defender merely has to brandish the gun to break off an attack.
		John Lott’s favourite example of the “Bias Against Guns” is the story of the shootings at the Appalachian School of Law.
		Lott performed a superficial analysis of the news stories about the shootings and found that very few of the stories mentioned the fact that two of the students involved in apprehending the killer were armed.

	Dance to the Music of Time
		Quiggins leaves and, after dinner, Jenkins agrees to stay with the Templers for the night, and on the drive to the Templers' home he begins a love affair with Jean.
		By associating with the Communists and Marxists rather than simply the socialists, Quiggin is defining himself as a supporter of violent means of change, and as a member of a very limited minority, in contrast to well-liked and socialist members, a supporter of gradual, democratic change.
		Her fortune readings predict the two central themes of the novel-Nick's relationship with Jean Templer, and the situation between St. John Clarke, Quiggin, and Members-in addition to the time and place of Nick's next meeting with her, which also turns out to be his second experience with the supernatural (14-16).

	2003 Fellow: John C. Quiggin
		Quiggin's original article on this topic (published in Journal of Economics and Behavioral Organization in 1982) is one of the best-known works in the literature on the representation of choice under uncertainty.
		Quiggin's widely-cited work on the valuation of public goods has included both technical contributions aimed at refining the contingent-valuation model and critical assessments of the theoretical underpinnings of the model, focusing on such issues as altruism and interactions within households.
		Quiggin has also been an active participant in the Australian public policy debate, publishing reports and submissions to public inquiries on topics including ecological tax reform, the implications of competition policy for regional communities and the agricultural sector, the sustainability of environmental funding, and tariff policy.

		Pleased to see John Quiggin accepts that he was wrong about John R. Christy's position on global warming (although I also accept that it was not unreasonable for John to draw the inference he did given the fairly small size of the National of Academy of Sciences group of which Christy was part).
		John Quiggin has just played a handy volley in answer to my return of his serve on global warming.
		Quiggin concedes that measurements of global temperature taken by satellites (continuously since 1979) fail to match the global mean surface temperature record, when he says "the satellite data now shows a slight warming trend, but not as much as the surface data".

		John Quiggin is right to expose the fraud of "we're doomed to either The Day After Tomorrow or a 17th century lifestyle" type thinking.
		Quiggin to suggest a 100% carbon tax (which I presume is what he means by referring to "such a tax" decreasing fuel use by 50%), but the consequences would be very painful for some.

	Right Reason: Crooked Crooked Timber
		John Quiggin laments that "in the leadup to the Iraq war, we were repeatedly told that anyone who disagreed with the rush to war, or criticised the Bush Administration, was 'anti-American'."
		So, according to John Quiggin, Right Reason is a blog that propagates the meme that to oppose the war is to be "anti-American" or "on the other side" or even a traitor.
		Quiggin does not offer any examples of such people in his post (economists have a high propensity to employ the passive voice).

		A friend of mine once suggested that they checked the robustness of their opinion on an issue by checking what John Quiggin thought, and assuming the opposite was correct.
		Quiggin claims the FTA is a reason to be dissapointed by the ALP -- but when Quiggin is dissapointed by the ALP there is a good chance that I will support them.
		For his part, Quiggin seems to be shifting his sympathies more towards the Greens.

		Interestingly, Quiggin cites as "useful" an analysis which agrees entirely with my own position on al-Sadr, namely that he should have been liquidated the instant he got up on his piss-soaked hind legs.
		In other news, a fellow by the name of Sebastian Holsclaw has been giving Quiggin hell in the comments, and writes a web log you might enjoy.

		The British move was welcomed enthusiastically yesterday by John Quiggin, of the University of Queensland's School of Economics.
		Professor Quiggin said the fine scale could be applied to crimes of intermediate severity such as speeding, and minor cases of assault, where imprisonment was unsuitable.
		Professor Quiggin said he could understand why the British Government's proposals had received a mixed reception, with one columnist dubbing it "class war in court".

		As I foreshadowed, my Fin column last week gave John Howard some unsolicited advice on how to deal himself back into the electoral game; namely ratify Kyoto.
		Of course, he’s done nothing of the kind, but still I was surprised by the lameness of his latest offering, a retro stunt involving hospital-based training for nurses.
		Here’s John Barrdear asking and Simon Jackman answering (a bit obscurely - I think he’s assuming a uniform swing, but I’m not sure).

		I don't agree with John Quiggin or Matthew Yglesias about the standoff in Najaf and on whether continued military pressure is the correct policy to deal with al-Sadr.
		My original disagreement with Quiggin's point was simply that I disagreed with his calculus; that, simply, if the measure was the deaths that would be directly caused by a decision we'd never do anything - invading Normandy would have been an impossible decision if this is the formula that ruled the Allies' thinking.
		John has previously failed to maintain that the proportionality of the response to Sadr's gang tactics was improper.

		John, I'm genuinely curious how - setting Iraq aside - in a world increasingly filled with failed ex-colonial states who are in a continual state of low-level civil war, you would propose to create enough stability to create a civil society without suppressing at least some of the armed 'tribes'?
		I agree, John, that proportionality and practically have to be considered, and I'm not proposing a specific plan, myself.
		I will be very surprised if John Quiggins doesn't regard WWII as a "war of self-defense" since he mentioned it, you know, in the sentence you quote, Judith, as "a war of self-defense."
