[QUOTE="Singularis, post: 2770951, member: 32412"] Chalk me up on the side of freedom as well. The "economic" argument against a free market of labor usually boils down to a desire for the unearned - a desire for a high paying job, but no desire to gain a valuable enough skill to set one apart from the rest of humanity... a desire for wealth, but no desire to create something of value to other people to give in exchange. Instead of working to make oneself more valuable, many would rather attempt to use force to get what they want, by eliminating the competition and giving others no better option than to accept their substandard services and inflated prices. You don't have a right to a job. A job is a relationship between consenting parties. You are not justified in initiating force against people under any circumstances -- certainly not to try to reduce competition in order to make more money. The fact that somebody is willing to work cheaper than you is not justification for the employment of violence against him. That is the last resort of a pathetic loser who desires the unearned. As for my thoughts on all the social contract hogwash, see my sig. [/QUOTE]
