"Free Trade," as practiced, is essentially lawless, which is its single most significant vice.

There are laws which govern driving on the highway and the analogy holds: those laws (some of which are silly, I admit,) are written for the benefit of society as a whole.

In other words, the restrictions placed on speed have to do with the greater good of all.

Capital, unrestricted, is JUST as dangerous as labor, unrestricted,, or Governmnent, unrestricted.

Can you give me an example of how unrestricted or 'free' trade of legal goods is dangerous?

Thank you. And this is exactly the point I've been trying to make.
