So we should also give up on minimum wages? Heath codes? Safety rules? Just let the market sort it out? Last time we tried that it did not end well. Regulation is necessary for a practical (not-highschool-textbook) economy.

We read Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle" in our high school economics class as an aside. Then again, I went to a high school where the government civics class started with reading the Mayflower Compact, The Social Contract, Wealth of Nations, and several excerpts from other sources which inspired the American Founding Fathers before spending the second half of the semester reading and discussing the Constitution line by line.
