I said I’d do a better job linking to articles so here’s a few goodies:

1. The reason people hate deficits and a good post by Tyler Cowen on why we should worry about the deficit.

2. Our infrastructure is improving, contrary to popular belief.

3. Everything you need to know about Bitcoin. And a long read from Felix Salmon on the electronic currency.

4. The Supreme Court Nominee in Waiting: Will GOP approve of Sri Srinvasan?

Enjoy.
