Trade and Barter

Chicken for Checkups?"More than Enough" in Jonah Hex #56 by Justin Gray, Jimmy Palmiotti, and Phil Windslade,
DC Comics (2010)

In the old west, people used to barter goods and services all the time. Witness here how Porivo offers Jonah a horse in exchange for one night of his services as a hired gun.

Had Jonah been a doctor instead of a bounty hunter and had Porivo been offering chickens instead of a horse, this would come pretty close to what certain officials want for our current health-care system.

    I think we need to see what Jonah Hex would do with a chicken before the parallel is exact. Postapocalyptic Jonah might even flip them at a profit. And why is it that certain campaigns for Congress put me in mind of postapocalyptic futures, anyway?

    This may be a perfect example of information asymmetry and adverse selection in insurance. I hope all textbook authors and legislators notice.
