      I don’t have to “let” Joe sell his own widgets. He’d be free to do that regardless. I guess your guidance is that the business should just die under this new model.

          It’s typically my experience that a great number of people are not entrepreneurial. They just want to show up to work, do their job, get paid and go home. I’m not talking about coercion of anyone to be FORCED to work for a business. I am just trying to understand how this new legislation would work. My hunch that is if this was passed, consumer prices would increase 20%. If you believe otherwise I would like to understand more.

            i’m just here to rail against the capitalist system. you can argue with someone else about the minutia of reformist policies.

              If you reject capitalism, I can see why this bill would be highly uninteresting to you.
