• Dan Mitchell compares living standards in high tax/high spending Denmark vs. the U.S. We're adopting all of Denmark's worst habits and none of its good ones.

• Megan McArdle has a very good post on the American way of controlling health care costs.

• General Electric makes the case that free trade is good for the environment.

• The Economist reports on some stirrings of economic reform in Cuba. It's not much but it's something.

• MacLeans says that the U.S. is making Canadian lives miserable, and protectionism is a big reason why. In fairness the long winters probably don't help either.
