The Production of Security
"?If there is one well-established truth in political economy, it is this: That in all cases, for all commodities that serve to provide for the tangible or intangible needs of the consumer, it is in the consumer's best interest that labor and trade remain free, because the freedom of labor and of trade have as their necessary and permanent result the maximum reduction of price.? The classic 1849 essay by the Belgian economist Gustave de Molinari that is widely cited as marking the birth of market anarchism as we know it today."
