Monday assorted links

1. Tax land more heavily than structures.

2. “Our findings suggest that equality-oriented governments adopt an approach that insures the middle, buffers the poor, but spares the rich. The result is a rhetorical commitment to equality that eschews its most redistributive instrument(s).”

3. Francesco Cabella conversation with (an older) Victor Niederhoffer.

4. New homes in Tatu City, Kenya.

5. Bill Goichberg, RIP (NYT).  America’s greatest chess organizer, he was always very nice and encouraging to me.

6. John Crowley, RIP.

7. Data on literacy and reading.
