In this section you will have the opportunity to apply what you have learned to real life newspaper and magazine articles. These are not made-up articles--they are the real thing! The table below will help guide you in your selection. Articles are grouped by type of intervention and whether by specialty subtopics. (Note that public provision is included along with subsidies since one can think of public provision as a 100 percent subsidy.) All you have to do is click on the underlined topic of your choice and you will be presented with an article selection. After you have completed reading and analyzing the article, you will have the opportunity to compare your analysis with that of the authors. So...what are you waiting for? Let the games begin!
