Suppose Kenji, an economist at a business school in Georgia, and Lucia, an economist at a public
Question:
Suppose Kenji, an economist at a business school in Georgia, and Lucia, an economist at a public television show, are arguing about health insurance. The following dialogue shows an excerpt of their debate:
Lucia: A popular topic of debate among politicians and economists is the idea of providing government assistance for health benefits.
Kenji: I think it's oppressive that the government taxes people who take care of themselves to pay for health insurance for obese people.
Lucia: I don't agree. I believe government funding of health insurance is helpful in ensuring basic equity.
The disagreement between these economists is most likely due to (differences in values/differences in scientific judgment/differences between perception and reality).
Despite their differences, what proposition are two randomly chosen economists most likely to agree with?
