John Clayton's Blog

Four and a half years ago, this blog made a proposal for economic development in Montana: legalize gay marriage. My tongue was slightly in cheek: I didn’t really expect Montanans to endorse the proposal. I mainly hoped to use the issue to point out the fallacies of many state-sponsored economic development efforts, which... well, that’s another story.

But today here comes the New York Times making the exact same point, minus the irony:

With the economy the way it is, becoming “the Las Vegas of same-sex marriages” began to sound like a good deal for states.
