Enemy of Humanity and the case for private enterprise
The piece argues private enterprise underpins representative government and liberty, warning socialist plans would graft total government control. It cites an American oil company paying 2.888 billion dollars in taxes and duties abroad and at home to illustrate how forced labor under state control harms material and spiritual well being from cradle to grave.
Big lie about workers versus owners debated as myth
Allen W Rucker argues against the notion that industry owners take most earnings. He cites a per hour value of 5.87 produced, 1.92 outside costs, leaving 3.95 to divide. Wages and benefits total 3.42, profits 0.53, allocating 86.6 percent to tool users and 13.4 percent to owners. Is that exploitation?
