Roe V Nebbia: Could Roe Be In Constitutional Jeopardy?, R. Morris Coats, Victor Parker, Shane Sanders, Bhavneet Walia

Shane D. Sanders

This study provides a positive analysis of abortion price regulation. Given Court precedent on the issues of abortion and state price regulation, the implementation of an abortion price control would create a potential legal conundrum. The price of abortion best meeting a state’s needs may affect incidence of legal abortion as would a direct market limitation or ban. Abortion price controls are evaluated with respect to relevant issues of liberty and confiscation. Given the Court's allowance of abortion as a marketable service allocated by a (restrictive) price mechanism, it is ambiguous and confounding that a state-controlled abortion price would present …

Insurer Moral Hazard In The Workers' Compensation Crisis: Reforming Cost Inflation, Not Rate Suppression, Martha T. Mccluskey

Journal Articles

This article challenges the standard story of the insurance crisis that led to the near-collapse and major reform of a number of states’ workers’ compensation programs in the 1980s and 1990s.

In the prevailing account, insurance costs rose due to expanding costs of benefits for injured workers’, much of which was blamed on wasteful or abusive "moral hazard" by workers and their lawyers and doctors. Because state regulators had substantial power to control insurance rates, this account claims governments tried to suppress prices in the face of rising benefit costs in a misguided attempt to avoid political trade-offs between labor …

Horizontal Restraints Under The French Antitrust Laws: Competition And Economic Progress, John W. Reboul

Vanderbilt Law Review

The French antitrust laws, now more than twelve years old, resist comparison with those of the United States, and they should not be approached with the belief that any country that has adopted legislation which speaks of competition has also adopted the American attitude toward competition. The attitude that has guided the application of the French antitrust laws seems to be the new French belief in economic expansion and active governmental intervention. The French defeat in the war discredited prewar economic doctrines which emphasized stability, and there has been an almost universal endorsement of theories of economic expansion. One commentator …

Early American Price-Fixing Legislation, Arthur S. Aiton

Michigan Law Review

One of the most pernicious delusions of legislators is the persistent notion that the enactment of a law is the panacea for any human ill from short sheets in hotels to the immodesty of certain styles of female apparel. The history of law-making is strewn with the wreckage of freak legislation of this character but the law-mills, heedless of the past, continue to spew forth new monstrosities and to revive old failures. That the human family cannot be legislated into a set mold of behavior and that the economic laws which underlie trade and intercourse cannot be enacted out of …
