bjre Posted March 9, 2010 Report Posted March 9, 2010 (edited) In a free market economy, the invisible hand of the market (the self-regulating nature of the marketplace), created by the conjunction of the forces of self-interest, competition, and supply and demand, is capable of allocating resources in society. But in Canada, there are laws lock this hand. For example, there are large demand for doctors, but law makes people hard to be a doctor, so that the salary of doctors be too high that the market are not able to lower the price automatically, (similar to medicine makers) so that the health system can keep asking for more money from Canadians. (The unfairness is that they make more money not with more work effort their pay, they make more money by taking the advantage of laws) There are many other works need licenses too. And there are laws make people build their DIY own house impossible. The law makers like to take away more and more pieces of freedom from people by every one extreme case. It is the legal system that make Canada not a free market system. When the automatically adjusting ability disabled, and the people still not aware of the problem, they don't know what happened even when they can not find a job. they begin to try to find anything to blame to.

Maybe he once belonged to those fabled most-advanced super-beings who always override laws in his hometown even if these laws were made by them, so he is just unused to have laws above him. Quote
