China is not regulated. The large majority of Chinese people live in abject poverty. Why? Because they are forced to work for $0 a day making the cheap crap that Wal Mart sells.

They are forced to work
by the government. It is regulation in its most brutal form.

That, is exactly what you are proposing for US. The silly thing is that under your Libertarian philosophy you would have US believe that what you are actually doing is championing Freedom.

Sorry, but there is a huge difference between voluntary work and work at gunpoint. In a libertarian society, the "evil exploiting capitalists" have to purchase labor at market prices. In a communist society, the Glorious Bureaucrats can force people to work for no pay by sending out an army of secret police to round them up and stuff them into State factories.

Freedom is not exploitation. Wherever exploitation exists, it is a result of government.
