Traditional Economics Is Like 19th Century Physics….
from the Math,-Econ,-and-Physics dept
People say information wants to be free. This article further asserts that the more information people have, the happier they can be. This isn’t just a random musing that Napster-users hope is true. It’s backed by the heady calculations of an econophysicist. Unfortunately, the calculation also says that information doesn’t have to be spread equally. So hoarding information is just dandy, I guess. Sorry, Napster users….
