      Like the food riots when there was no minimum wage in a post-industrial revolutionary world? Cause the moment you let the employers dictate what a fair value is for any job that doesn't require a high education you get slave conditions. It's a historical fact.

      If I have accidentally said something witty, smart, or correct, it is purely by mistake and I apologize for it.

        You have absolutely no idea how an economy operates. It is a very complex machine that has a way of balancing itself out, much like the ecosystem and how all life evolves to adapt to its environment. Anything that interferes with this natural process will cause problems that will require a correction later down the road. Imagine a giant spring, you keep pushing and twisting and pulling, trying to get it to the shape you want, but eventually its going to spring back to its natural state and its going to break your arm and whip you in the face when it does it.

              You state that people should learn from history. Well, history shows that if you allow the owner of a company that uses manual labor to set prices, they will completely abuse this and create a slave labor force. It is well documented. Somehow you believe that if you were to drop the minimum wage, this would not happen again. Somehow the people working would be better off. Which is pretty much exactly the opposite of what has happened when there is no regulation. quit trying to use analogies that have nothing to do with the fact that you sum up with learning from history but you blatently haven't done so yourself.

                No it does not. In a free market system, prices are not set by a central authority. In a communist or socialist system, prices are set by a central authority. These price fixing schemes are extremely problematic. I just don't understand why anyone would support socialism or communism. Read a history book, watch a documentary, for god sakes just educate yourself from facts instead of communist propaganda.

                    The Federal Reserve is the prime cause of the financial meltdown. Ben creates the money, Ben lends it out to whoever he wants at whatever interest rate he chooses. He buys US Treasuries, he loans money to foreign central banks and governments, he has all the money in the world and can do whatever he wants with it. The central banks are the real governments, they run the economies of the world and use legislative governments for their own goals. The real power is behind the thrown.

                              But economies are not natural processes like evolution. They are man made constructs and therefore subject to how men use them.

                              There is no fundamental reason why free market economies should be self-correcting. In particular there is no reason why one should come out of a depression. Unless you take the view that wages will be driven down below subsistence level, as a result the supply of labour will contract (due to starvation) so, subsequently, the supply of labour will match demand and hence we will be back at full employment, and every one will be happy.

                                The reason for the riots was because the industrial revolution was reshaping the economy. People were used to growing most of their own food and the transition from working on the farm to working in the factory was a hard one. If there were a minimum wage during that period the industrial revolution would have been crippled or snuffed out and we would be behind technologically today. As a transitional period such as an industrial revolution progresses, things balance out. Transitional periods are always rough and government interference will only lengthen the transition and make it more difficult across the board. The riots were not only due to low wages, but the workers didn't have rights, they couldn't even vote. Any government that takes away rights of certain people will create classes of people who will always be exploited no matter what. China is a perfect example of that. They do not have a free market in China, therefor factory workers will never be permitted to increases salaries. In America, everyone used to have rights, we were most prosperous when everybody had their rights. We are least prosperous when certain people have their rights taken away. As we see today, the economy is in ruins, we are left to pay for 13+ trillion dollars in federal debt, and the debt of the state and city we live in, while the elite get bags of cash from the government and get to weild tremendous power over the American people. We are entering face first into bondage, neo-feudalism.

                                  The Federal Reserve is the prime cause of the financial meltdown. Ben creates the money, Ben lends it out to whoever he wants at whatever interest rate he chooses. He buys US Treasuries, he loans money to foreign central banks and governments, he has all the money in the world and can do whatever he wants with it. The central banks are the real governments, they run the economies of the world and use legislative governments for their own goals. The real power is behind the thrown.

                                  I didn't realise USA was a monarchy. :) EDIT: just realised it was meant to be a thrown... something or other. Or possibly a throne.

                                    But economies are not natural processes like evolution. They are man made constructs and therefore subject to how men use them.

                                    There is no fundamental reason why free market economies should be self-correcting. In particular there is no reason why one should come out of a depression. Unless you take the view that wages will be driven down below subsistence level, as a result the supply of labour will contract (due to starvation) so, subsequently, the supply of labour will match demand and hence we will be back at full employment, and every one will be happy.

                                    We are part of nature, everything we do is due to evolutionary processes. We are not artificial or separated from natural processes.

People's actions and desires on an individual level keep the economy in check. However, if certain people are given governmental power to manipulate the economy (power trough the barrel of a gun) that will get us in the economic situation we are in today where a select group of people get a feed off everyone's bank accounts and wield tremendous power over the population.

                                      It is a figure of speech, but yes, it is getting to be that way.

                                        By that reckoning the Brooklyn Bridge, Empire State Building and every other man-made construct is part of nature. Never said we were separate, but we have the ability to shape things to our ends e.g. constructing an economic system that does not rely of unfettered free markets.

                                        As are the things like murder, rape, grabbing power for selfish ends, etc. So we should not condemn them, after all they are only natural.
