We study the following collective-choice mechanism: every agent can express her intensity of support or opposition to each alternative, by transferring to the rest of the agents wealth equal to the square of the intensity expressed, and the outcome is determined by the net sums of the expressed intensities. We prove that as the group grows large, in every equilibrium of this quadratic-transfers mechanism (QTM), each agent\u2019s transfer converges to zero, and the probability that the efficient outcome is chosen converges to one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Jon X.
