“Time after time we're told corporations should have freedom from pesky job safety regulations, environmental protections and labor standards - giving working people the freedom to be crushed in collapsing mines, choke on filthy air and get paid too little to live on.” PeopleGivingShouldLittlesJobsAirMinesStandardsLaborShould HavePaidSafetyEnvironmentalProtectionCorporationsRegulationCrushedChokeFilthyEnvironmental Protection Author:Richard Trumka

“The free enterprise concept inherent in the economic model of capitalism should mean common people, or lower and middle class wage-earners, have greater potential to rise up and gain financial independence. In reality, however, free enterprise all too often leads to an almost total lack of government regulation that in turn allows the global elite to run amuck in Gordon Gecko-style financial coups.” PeopleShouldMeanRealityGovernmentRunningTurnsCommonClassGreaterEconomicMiddleStyleModelsConceptsCapitalismGainsIndependenceFinancialEnterpriseMiddle ClassElitesRegulationInherentFree EnterpriseCoupsGovernment RegulationFinancial IndependenceEconomic Models Author:James Morcan
“Here is a principle to use in all aspects of economics and policy. When you find a good or service that is in huge demand but the supply is so limited to the point that the price goes up and up, look for the regulation that is causing it. This applies regardless of the sector, whether transportation, gas, education, food, beer, or daycare. There is something in the way that is preventing the market from working as it should. If you look carefully enough, you will find the hand of the state making the mess in question.” IfsWayShouldLooksStatesEnoughUseHandsPrinciplesPolicyHugeDemandAspectEconomicsMessBeerGasRegulationTransportationPreventingDaycare Author:Jeffrey Tucker
“The cult of the omnipotent state has millions of followers in the united States. Americans of today view their government in the same way as Christians view their God; they worship and adore the state and they render their lives and fortunes to it. Statists believe that their lives - their very being - are a privilege that the state has given to them. They believe that everything they do is - and should be - dependent on the consent of the government. Thus, statists support such devices as income taxation, licensing laws, regulations, passports, trade restrictions, and the like.” WayShouldBelieveStatesGovernmentTodayChristianLawGivenUnitedViewsMillionsUnited StatesSupportWorshipTradeFortunePrivilegeIncomeDependentDevicesFollowersRegulationConsentCultAdoreTaxationRestrictionIncome TaxPassportsOmnipotentLicensing Book:The tyranny of gun control Source: The tyranny of gun control
