  I thought this was an interesting article demonstrating the impact of money and distribution in scenarios involving the market system. Though the article does show some of studies done, I felt that some of the studies were created to get a single answer rather than one without a bias. That said, one of the last thing that Bowles shows is how important voluntary giving is rather then money giving under force. "We're showing that paying taxes does produce a neural reward. But we're showing that the neural reward is even higher when you have voluntary giving." I thought that answer was one of the more surprising responses in the article also bringing forth some good points.
