Right before RadioShack went bankrupt, there was a rumor that Amazon was going to buy them (giving them an instant national chain of showrooms). The stock went up, then RS went out. I was wondering at the time if someone with stock had know

>Another way to look at this is that the State is making it possible for the employer to pay less for labor than they otherwise would. Something that opponents of the welfare state have said from the begging.

I didn't say that it is not. I'm saying that you can't compare limits on government power as proof that there is a human right to get services from a government.
