Results In a Petri Dish

Before injecting the national body economic with a dose of common sense and free market strategies it would be good to do a lab experiment. Look at life in a Petri dish and see how common sense works.

This is Oklahoma. It is about energy for America drawn from our own domestic resources. It is about labor flowing to jobs. It is about supply  and demand. It isn't about windmills. It is about drilling and fracking and paying for labor what the market demands.

Oil Boom Brings Job Flood And Worker Shortage

Nobody needs a minimum wage law. Nobody has to work if they don't want to, but apparently they want to.  Nobody subsidizes this product because it is in market demand. In fact, this doesn't cost the government a damn thing. All they need to do is get out of the way and then accept the tax revenues when the workers pay their annual income tax. No dependency required.

Ain't gwinna put none of dem people in no chains, Joe!

Work is anathema to the Maynard G. Krebs voters that the Democrats court.
