8. The interaction of individual choices Because eels are highly endangered as a species, many governments enact laws prohibiting fishing along their migration route. Initially, eel fishers complain about this restriction on the locations they can fish, but after a while they notice that the number eels swimming outside regulated areas is much higher than it was before. With the laws in place, eel fishers end up catching a greater quantity of eels than they did prior to the enactment of the laws. Which of the following principles of economic interaction best describes this scenario? O Markets allocate goods effectively. O When markets do not achieve efficiency, government intervention can improve overall welfare. O There is a tradeoff between equality and efficiency. O Markets usually lead to efficiency.
