It's stupid. Economy doesn't exists in a vacuum. It' very influenced by politic. And saying politic I mean the way a society decide to use its finite resources AND the rules a society define for his citizens. And an Economy simply lives there, in circle of rules.

So if minimum wage let some people out, the same happens not letting children work. And why taking care of people with physical problems (no hands? no legs? why the State, using public money should care? You are a problem just let you take care of yourself)?

You set the rules of your society. It doesn't exists something called free market. The market is defined by the rules of the society AND the society change in time AND space. So the market change in time AND space.

And these Friedman bullshit are the same you hear over and over and over.

And I'm a bit tired.
