The Reason Foundation recently announced the winners of the 2012 Bastiat Prize for Journalism. You can read more about the winners here. Co-blogger Steve was selected as one of the honorable mentions. Here is a sample of Steve's "best" popular writing:

1. The Parable of the Traffic Lights:  http://www.cityam.com/forum/the-parable-the-broken-traffic-lights-when-good-signals-go-bad

2. Create Value, Not Jobs (Minneapolis Star-Tribune version):   http://www.startribune.com/opinion/commentaries/153296245.html  (more traditional op-ed, good market reach)

 3. Steve's Schechters piece:  http://www.thefreemanonline.org/features/thats-not-kosher-how-four-jewish-butchers-brought-down-the-first-new-deal/

 Congratulations to Steve for taking Bastiat's warning seriously:

“The worst thing that can happen to a good cause is not to be skillfully attacked, but to be ineptly defended.”
