I’ve been catching up on a lot of reading with instapaper and our kindle. Here are some of the more interesting economics reads I’ve had in the last few months:

• Business Is Booming – America’s leading corporations have found a way to thrive even if the American economy doesn’t recover. This is very, very bad news.
• Why Isn’t Wall Street in Jail? Financial crooks brought down the world’s economy — but the feds are doing more to protect them than to prosecute them
• Jonathan Lebed’s Extracurricular Activities
• Overdrive – Who really rescued General Motors?
