And attached to the purchase of the land by the city for a park will be a hundred laws on its use by citizens, such as leash laws, dog poop laws, smoking restrictions, drinking restrictions, trash restrictions, time restrictions and other use restrictions, all laws that are "do such and such or else", on land designed for the citizenry.

Of course. City parks are public lands...or lands owned by the collective 'public' and held in trust by the city government.

And as for your holiday, if you are a business owner, you will likely have laws pertaining to your employees' pay that you will need to follow.

If this is a private business owned by a private person and not a 'public' one.... why?

That statement destroys the right to private property, the free market system AND the equity of law.

It's a Trifecta!

I'm not sure you followed the context of the argument. It went back a couple of posts.

Because many laws both state and federal may apply, including minimum wage laws, laws pertaining to holiday pay, and a whole host of laws regulating the business itself.

That statement destroys the right to private property, the free market system AND the equity of law.

Huh?
