It's remarkable to see such contradictory views side-by-side and called "free market economics." Ah, Choatian beliefs are a many- splendored thing.
They're not contradictory because the market they exist in now isn't 'free'. Just another example of your poor reasoning. Telling somebody 'quite taking advantage of that person' is not the same thing as 'give that that or else'. What is contradictory is to say one believes in a 'free market' and then actively support a non-free market by such commentary as you provide above. "If they don't like it, they can leave."; never mind they can't leave. Very convenient that. -- ____________________________________________________________________ The people never give up their liberties but under some delusion.
