Khan, you make the argument that it is very hard to determine the true equilibrium quantity and therefore should not implement a quota, but couldn't the same be said of the tax? It is just as difficult to determine that the social costs are 2 additional cents per bag. Very nice series of videos though - they're helping me study for my micro final

I feel like pigouvian taxes is one of the only taxes where it’s a win-win and not a negative-sum game.

Now add the real cost of labor to the social cost and you get the reason why market capitalism cannot sustain itself (without state intervention).

Why wouldn't tax create dead weight loss? I still dont understand.

Because it cancels a transaction that would've had a worse outcome for society rather than canceling a transaction that would've had more positive than negatives.
