Mises.org has a nice piece on Shakespeare by Morgan Brown titled
Shakespeare: The Ultimate Market Product. I am sure anti-market types would argue that this diminishes Shakespeare, but in fact it does nothing of the sort. The market cannot successfully market things nobody wants.

ReplyDeleteMy story of vainglory,
Of wits without profits,
My sound and fury saga
Leaves me weary, stale and flat.
Here I sit toward the lag-end,
Weak, times I squeak:
I have been antiqued.
