Do Greedy Spinach Merchants Want To Kill You?, by Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr., Mises.org Daily Article, 6 Oct 2006 "This is one of the benefits of the information age, when word gets out to hundreds of millions in a matter of minutes. The response was a marvel of how markets can work. A valuable product said to bring health suddenly becomes a source of sickness and within hours, people not only stop eating it; it isn't even available for purchase!" |
Don't Do It, Google, by Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr., 2 May 2006 Related Topics: Government, Property Rights "But what if Microsoft still dominates the market with inferior technology? Here we must speak to a common myth about free markets. It is not the case that the best technology always wins. All we can say about free markets is that there is a tendency for the most economically suitable products to dominate the market over the long term." |

What Is the Enemy?, by Sheldon Richman, Freedom Daily, Apr 2006 Related Topics: Socialism "In a truly free market new products and services are always appearing, making dominant products passé. This is also true for the production of capital goods and for services. Thus under laissez faire, without government-bestowed privilege, market share is never guaranteed." |
Who Owns the Internet?, by Tim Swanson, Mises.org Daily Article, 4 May 2006 Related Topics: Communications Technology, Prices, Private Property "Many users mistakenly believe that the current radio spectrum and telecom regime is the product of the free-market. It is not. The FCC did not create the radio spectrum nor does it have some homesteading claim to the near-infinitesimal ranges found within it. It is, simply, a bureaucratic sophistry, which oddly enough believes it can distribute something it does not own." |
Winning the Battle for Freedom and Prosperity, by John Mackey, Liberty, Jun 2006 Related Topics: Business, Educational Freedom, Health, Health Care, Life Extension, Personal Responsibility, Socialism Updated from speech given at FreedomFest 2004 "... we must advocate the ideal of free markets and competition in health care. The monopoly that medical doctors largely have in medical treatment must be broken. They should have to compete fully with other practitioners, such as chiropractors, acupuncturists, naturopaths — and yes, my skeptical friend, John Stossel, even homeopaths." |
