Pointing Out the Obvious—At Least to Austrian Economics Followers

December 17, 2009

So you all know by now that the federal gunvernment is still outlawing U.S. citizens from buying cheaper prescription drugs from another country. So why isn’t the gunvernment outlawing buying cheaper labor from another country (i.e., outsourcing)?*

One more glaring proof that we live in a country that has an economy controlled by big corporations rather than a competitive free market.

*Of course, most economically-ignorant people probably want the opposite—allowing the buying of cheaper drugs, but outlawing the buying of cheaper labor. In truth, neither voluntary transaction should be outlawed.
