    I'm not sure I agree with him on this one...people are born into predicaments that are almost impossible to get out of, cycles of poverty are hard to break.

    BTW I'm a big fan of Stefan Molyneux and anarcho-capitalsim/libertarianism, glad to see there are other people out there that follow this guy!

    For sure but he does make sense. I have a lot of work that needs to be done but I cannot afford to pay a wage or salary that is "market related" We are expected to pay minimum wages and we are expected to pay taxes etc. There are many people out there who need work but do not find employment because they are unwilling to do work below their "standards" I know an airline pilot who got retrenched from Sun Air and installed irrigation systems to provide for his family. He eventually got back into flying and is now a SAA pilot. The point is that there are actually 3 sides to the issue, !. Regulations, 2. An unwillingness for people to do menial labour until they get their big break. 3. An unwillingness on the part of the employer to put up with a wise-ass who hates the work and sits around bitching and moaning all day long.

    Anyhow, work doesn't get done, companies don't grow and the politicians waste all the taxes that they suck from us...that is the way of the world...
