This video gives a clear demonstration of how incentives matter :)
And this letter from JFK is for the fans of supply and demand:

What others are saying...
- One of the most interesting, opinionated and committed bloggers around, David Zetland, pours forth in this blog about water, market-based solutions and a whole lot more. A high-intensity read.
- doesn't look like you have a ton of pageviews, and your blog has been around awhile. How did you get a book offer, and it looks like Forbes columns, out of a small blog like that?
- Learn about the way water works from an economic perspective. The posts are concise and to-the-point, making it a great read for newcomers to the topic.
- I love when David Zetland makes my job easier.
- My only complaint is the challenge of keeping up with David’s content. If you’ve ever met David this wouldn’t come as a surprise. Great stuff, but man does it come fast. David will post 4 – info filled – posts in a day; I’m lucky to post 4 in a month and one of them will be about drinking beer, eating pizza, and reading blogs.
- David Zetland (at aguanomics) who, besides asking questions with obvious answers, thinks posts about cow farts cheapen his blog.
- David Zetland's aguanomics blog is excellent. This morning he changed his mind on the peripheral canal.
- Yesterday I linked to David Zetland's piece in Forbes arguing that residential water ought to be priced to better reflect genuine supply and demand. Sure, I replied, but how about agricultural water too?
Paying the bills...
