An economist would conclude that when goods are not rationed by monetary price or lottery, other rationing mechanisms like waiting arises.

Here, many people were willing to wait for more than two hours to see the rare flower. The visiting was arranged in such a way that first come, first see. The rareness of the flower made no option but to wait in line to see it.

In an economist's perspective, he will compare the flower to the goods. There is rationing for food through monetary and lottery mechanisms. But if  there were no mechanisms like this, then waiting will be the only way to consume goods. Here, because the flower was rare, it cannot be rationed by price. But we are still able to ration goods by price. If someday, there will be lack of goods, then the only rationing mechanism we could opt will be waiting in lines.

Olive Maccones dies without a will. She has three sons and seven grandchildren. She owned a substantial amount of property. What
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

The property will be transferred according to the Statute of Descent and Distribution.

Explanation:

Intestacy is the situation where a person dies without leaving a will for the sharing of his estate.

When this happens the descent and distribution statute comes into play.

The heirs or next of kin are beneficiaries to the estate. Heirs can be be blood relatives, adopted children, adopted parent, or surviving spouse.

The line of descent is the order of beneficiaries that are from an ancestor. The line of descent can be direct such as sons, or collateral such as cousins.

In this case where Olive Maccones dies without a will and she has three sons and seven grandchildren, her estate will be distributed by a court based on the line of descent of her sons and grandchildren.
