Individual freedoms correlate positively with efficient allocation of resources.
Countries that respect individual freedom are rich and that must because people in those countries realized, often correctly, that their interest match their productivity.
So we wouldn’t make much mistake if we “define” individual freedom by lack of market distortion governments’ create. That’s what we’ll do in this article.
Say government says that you cannot buy orange. Than governments trample on your individual freedom, namely your right to buy orange.
But it depends on the punishment. We can’t say the government violates our individual freedom if the punishment is too light.
Say the government says that if you buy orange you need to be fined by $1. Then well, that’s your oppression. $1. Big deal.
Say the market price for apple is $5 and government says that it should be $6. So every time you buy an apple you are fined $1. Tax and fine is the same thing.
That also means that orange suppliers get a subsidy of $1.
Also by being a consumer of orange rather than the supplier, you forgo the $1 subsidy that the orange supplier makes. So that’s another $1 punishment for you for every orange you fail to make. Government has forced everyone to produce orange by not giving them $1 that government gives to orange producer.
The same way free health care is punishment against those who are healthy. Free education is punishment for those who do not have kids. If paid by income tax, that means punishment for those who earn money.

2. Incompetent Design. God created every species. However, he’s not so powerful that he […]

Is Life CreatedThere are obvious similarities between humans and most other creatures. Those similarities cannot be explained just by natural selection or design alone.
For example, if we see two religions, Christianity and Islam, we see some common thread. For example, they both argue that we will go to heaven or hell based on what we […]

Rich males want as many females as possible. That’s the whole point of getting rich. Women prefer the rich. Rich males can attract and afford more women. And that’s why many want so many laws against consensual sex. To exterminate the best and brightest, and hence, tougher competitors from the gene pool.
Polygamy allows those with […]

How do we distribute wealth among us?
Some people would say that we distribute our wealth proportional to productivity within capitalistic society.
I do not mean how we distribute our wealth within capitalistic society. I also do not mean how we “should” distribute our wealth.
I mean how we actually distribute our wealth.
Wealth and natural resources gets divided […]
