Now you're probably wondering...what or who is "NoPigou"??

No worries, I had to look it up too :wtf:

From the website:
quote:

Arthur C. Pigou was an early 20th-century British economist, one of the fathers of welfare economics. He believed governments can shape policy for the better by raising taxes on bad things and subsidizing good ones. In the view of the NoPigou Club, the Pigou approach is just another form of central planning dressed up in free market terminology.


The next question obviously is, what IS this site about?
Again from the website:
quote:

Dedicated to saving the United States and Canada from Greg Mankiw's Pigovian plan for major gas tax increases


Sounds good to me!
Maybe they'll add some perspective, at least for me, into the world of nebulous petroleum practices...
