Assignment 2:

1.For years now, utilities, phones companies, and cable/Internetproviders have been deregulated, which, in theory, gives customers morechoices. However, many consumers still only have one choice when itcomes to their natural gas provider or cable/Internet provider. Andthose who do have a choice tend to be faced with prices from two or morecompanies that are near identical to each other. And neither is lowerthan the prices before the deregulation, which is not what consumerswere expecting after being told the deregulated market would offer morecompetitive prices. Explain why competition in these areas has notlowered prices and how price fixing, competition, and governmentregulation play a role.

2.Most countries in the modern world have some sort of letter maildelivery system. The United States Postal Service is, by far, the mostefficient, affordable, reliable system in the world with every box inthe country being delivered every day of the 6-day delivery week. Not tomention a first-class letter costs the same whether it is mailed nextdoor or across the country. Yet, many people feel the monopoly of theUSPS isn’t fair because there is no competition. If you want a lettermailed for less than $1.00 the USPS is the only choice (other packagecarriers can deliver letter mail, but the rates are much higher than theUSPS.)

Ifmonopolies are bad, why does the government insist on keeping this onealive by blocking competition? What if the USPS decides to cut Saturdaydelivery (as has been discussed every few years for the past 20 years)or, due to a decline in mail volume, cuts delivery to 3 days per week.Would the government still be able to justify a monopoly then? Or shouldmonopolies all be done away with? Explain your answer.

3.The sign on the beach reads “$25 fine for littering.” A beach usernonetheless tosses his used soda bottles on the sand rather than walk tothe distant trash barrel. He knows that the beach patrol has seen himand will issue a citation, but he is very wealthy, and so places a verylow marginal value on money and a very high marginal value on time.Would you call him a litterer if he were willing to pay the fine? Or hashe purchased the right to use the sand as a waste receptacle? What ifhe littered on your private property? How does that change thesituation?

4.When you bought your house, only 5 commercial planes passed over itdaily, on average. That number has grown slowly and almost imperceptiblyover the intervening years, and now numbers 150. Is the change from 5to 150 a drastic or radical change? Is your situation with 150 planesflying over your house each day more tolerable because the numberincreased slowly and imperceptibly? Would you be more likely to receivecompensation of some sort if the changes had occurred over a very shortperiod of time? Does the fact that we can’t tell which straw broke thecamel’s back mean that the addition of more straw to the camel’s burdenwas not the cause of its broken back?
