如果一美女嫁给一丑男,而丑男虽然没有本事,但是他的父亲是有权之人或有钱之人,这又从经济学上做何解释?
Your solution is right. You already explain it well.
The adverse selection will cause market failure(see 3, 5 楼). 鲜花插在一坨牛粪上 will/should not happen in a rational market.
But 他的父亲是有权之人或有钱之人 and pay the "insurance" == 牛粪不一般. So the market works now.
So that is why you can see 鲜花插在一坨牛粪上 in daily life.
