It's your understanding of Laissez Faire economic policy that leaves something to be desired. Seriously, dude.........you think Laissez Faire economic policy is known to protect consumers from monopolies, predatory pricing, and other unsavory behavior?

Float that idea in Econ 102 after two weeks and even the freshmen will be clowning you.


Well don't hold back Dan, being the scholarly gentleman that you are. Point to me a real life example of a non-coercive monopoly that harmed consumers in some way.

I'll wear the clowning from the freshman as a badge of honor thank you. It's not as if I would give a flying fugazee about what a bunch of snot-nosed, know nothing, punk freshman taking Econ 102 at Evergreen State think about Austrian theory. One day when they're done tripping out in drum circles, smokin' cheeb with their burnout profs, and grow up and get real jobs. They will come to the realization that they wasted mommy and daddy's money on the state propaganda econ bull$hit that was fed to them when they were too naive to know any better.

.........................and you still didn't answer my question about today's economy being laissez faire.

Was the credit collapse a failure of the free market in your eyes?

stlhd, you're in left field with your thumb in your a$$ as usual. Try to keep up here while the adults are having a conversation,.....or just keep to yourself if it's too far over your head. You embarrass yourself. thumbs
