Yglesias fatigue...

Today our hero bjafnbasddfjdddddddddddddddddddddddd:

At a minimum, I’d like to see someone make the case for National Park abolition. What’s more, there’s a whole range of possible policy options short of totally eradicating the system. Land could be set aside exclusively for “National Park Use” and private park operators invited to bid for the right to operate for-profit park facilities. Individual citizens could be granted National Park Vouchers. Park socialism will inevitably lead to rationing, and economic stagnation.

Sorry for that. Anyway, the best thing about libertarianism is that it's often impossible to tell when its advocates are joking (which see: child prostitution -- fear not, the market will take care of it!). I have read the above paragraph several times and I am genuinely perplexed. Has our hero seen the light? Is he cracking wise at a Tyler Cowenesque privatization scheme for an obviously worthwhile public service? Or was the last sip of Kool-Aid more than his fragile intellect could handle? Who knows?

What we do know is that shares on the Matthew Yglesias Ridiculous Pronouncements Commodities Futures Trading Index are being exchanged at all-time highs. The curve has taken on hockey stick-like properties. Buy, buy, buy!
