The framing of this is so incredibly (almost humorously) ideological. Look at what you've implicitly set up:
* the State, contracts, corporations, right-to-work law, at-will employment law, etc - all good, natural parts of the market.
* employee unions - bad, unnatural, rent-seeking, deviations from the market.
It's untenable.
- quotemstr 7y agoDo you have an argument other than that I've called bad things bad? Rent seeking is discouraged in economic policy for a reason (a reason I mentioned above), not because economists dislike how the word "rent" sounds or some other arbitrary reason. > It's untenable It's quite tenable.
