“Economists tell us that the 'price' of an object and its 'value' have very little or nothing to do with one another.

For government to attempt to dictate a 'fair price' betrays complete misunderstanding of the entire process.” GivingLittlesGovernmentLawValuesProcessAcceptingPsychologyEconomicObjectsWillingGiving UpFairsEconomicsBetrayEconomistMisunderstandingSubjectiveUtilitySellersBuyersEconomic Value Author:L.
