Are non-conpetes a violation of free market because they stop employees moving freely to a better job?
Or are they free market in action, becauae thats what employer and employee negotiated?
To the best of my knowledge non-conpetes are illegal in most of europe.
- origin_path 4y agoGood question but I'd say the former. One can imagine all sorts of 'negotiations' that restrict civilized competition which people feel forced to agree to in the moment. A free market is one in which sellers are free to compete, and buyers are free to buy. That does require various kinds of trust-busting.
