Adding an economic reactionary to the Supreme Court: high costs of the Ginsburg nomination
Article Abstract:
The nomination of D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Ruth Bader Ginsburg is an error on the part of the Clinton administration because her views on antitrust and business issues are inconsistent with the economic values that Pres. Clinton has set forth. The only time she voted for an antitrust plaintiff was when a merger would result in one firm controlling 100% of the market. Pres. Clinton's support of small business and international competitiveness will not be well served by the nomination of US Supreme Court Justices that believe in the efficiency of big business.

Corporate 'bloat' and U.S. competitiveness: 'monopoly is the great enemy of good management.'
Article Abstract:
The US Supreme Court is operating under the mistaken assumption that profitability and competitiveness are synonymous, and the perpetuation of inefficient large corporations is harming the ability of the US to compete on an international level. Policymakers have focused on the productivity problems of US labor without considering the efficiency problems of US industrial organization. The US Department of Labor needs to continue to take an aggressive stance against the anticompetitive behavior of industries such as the airlines and the automakers.
