Socialists destroy trade

Socialists destroy the beauty of the free market.

The free market means nothing more than the ability to swap our possessions, including the use of our own bodies, at our discretion. Socialists intervene in this process, by stating that in some cases, we may not make such a transfer, or that, with taxes, we must purchase permission from the State. This is destructive because being ale to make these transactions is what makes life easy andliveable . If we cannot collaborate, there is no Division of Labour and we must make and protect everything for ourselves. Since we now live in an advanced industrial economy, this is damaging.

If we cannot trade our possessions as we like, then we will suffer. To trade is a natural right, for ownership must contain within it the right to sell or trade our possessions. To tax trade is to diminish the aspect of ownership which relates to trade, and the property is then devalued, if it cannot be traded, or leased.
