- AmericanChopper 8y agoNeoconservativism places a lot of importance in the free market, I don’t see how contracts that prevent people from seeking work could be labeled as neoconservative policy.

- AmericanChopper 8y agoThen I think you might not be very familiar with economics, because that’s the market theory of wage determination, which is simply supply and demand applied to the labor market. Can you provide any examples of conservatives who argue against the existence of a competitive labor market?

- AmericanChopper 8y agoI thought we were talking about neoconservative economists and policy makers, not random and anonymous online commenters.
