Outlawing Jobs: The Minimum Wage - Murray N. Rothbard - Mises Daily

Outlawing Jobs: The Minimum Wage - Murray N. Rothbard - Mises Daily: "In truth, there is only one way to regard a minimum wage law: it is compulsory unemployment, period. The law says: it is illegal, and therefore criminal, for anyone to hire anyone else below the level of X dollars an hour. This means, plainly and simply, that a large number of free and voluntary wage contracts are now outlawed and hence that there will be a large amount of unemployment. Remember that the minimum wage law provides no jobs; it only outlaws them; and outlawed jobs are the inevitable result."

"the people who will be disemployed and devastated by this prohibition will be precisely the "marginal" (lowest wage) workers, e.g. blacks and teenagers, the very workers whom the advocates of the minimum wage are claiming to foster and protect."

"When they came for the Raw Milk drinkers…" - Campaign for Liberty

"When they came for the Raw Milk drinkers…" - Campaign for Liberty: "the offices of Rawesome Foods in Venice, California, have been repeatedly raided by armed federal and state agents, and Rawesome’s founder, 65-year old James Stewart, has been imprisoned. What heinous crime justified this action? Rawesome sold unpasteurized (raw) milk and cheese to willing customers – in a state where raw milk is legal! You cannot even drink milk from a cow without a federal permit!"

Are armed agents really needed for something like that?

Massad Ayoob » Blog Archive » YA CAN’T MAKE THESE FECES UP…: "Ignore the fact that the ounce of lead you discharge with each pull of the trigger has got to come down somewhere…like a while back when a careless hunter emptied his muzzle-loader into the air, and the projectile came down and killed a teenage Amish girl far from the scene."

"The Drone Threat" - Campaign for Liberty

"The Drone Threat" - Campaign for Liberty: "he US government justified its attack on Saddam Hussein in Iraq and against Gaddafi in Libya, and elsewhere, with claims that these despots were killing their own citizens without trial or due process.

The Deflationary Spiral Bogey - Robert Blumen - Mises Daily

The Deflationary Spiral Bogey - Robert Blumen - Mises Daily: "While the idea of lower prices may sound attractive, deflation is a real concern for several reasons. Deflation discourages spending and investment because consumers, expecting prices to fall further, delay purchases, preferring instead to save and wait for even lower prices. Decreased spending, in turn, lowers company sales and profits, which eventually increases unemployment."

It's a good thing that people haven't figured out that consumer electronics prices as been falling for decades! :-p If people thought there might be a future iPhone 6 that was better or cheaper they would never buy the iPhone 5!

Oh wait -- everyone does know that consumer electronics prices go down and they still buy lots of them!
