James Surowiecki Zitate

Markets work best when there's lots of information available and a historical track record to go on; they excel at predicting things like horse races, election outcomes, and box-office results. But they're bad at predicting things like who will be the next Supreme Court nominee, as that depends on the whim of the president.

Märkte funktionieren am besten, wenn viele Informationen verfügbar sind und ein historischer Track Record zur Verfügung steht. Sie zeichnen sich durch Vorhersagen über Dinge wie Pferderennen, Wahlergebnisse und Kassenergebnisse aus. Aber sie können schlecht Vorhersagen treffen, zum Beispiel wer der nächste Kandidat des Obersten Gerichtshofs sein wird, da dies von der Laune des Präsidenten abhängt.

America is living through the third economic revolution and our country doesn't really have a plan on how to deal with it, and when it does - like the president sort of outlined when he first got here - we have a Congress who seem incapable of acting on it.

There have been 111 Justices in the Supreme Court of the United States. Only three have been women. If she is confirmed, Solicitor General Kagan will bring the Supreme Court to an historical high-water mark, with three women concurrently serving as Justices.

The idea of the state is, or should be, a very limited, prescribed idea. The state looks after the defense of the realm, and other matters - raising revenue to pay for things which are for all of us, and so on. That idea has turned turtle now. The state isn't any longer perceived as an institution which exists to serve us.
