The Great Weight of History is against you. It all started in Babylonia. Gov't has always had to regulate business. In "Libertarian World", gov'ts aren't supposed to do this, but that is "theory". The real world works differently. Put down Ayn Rand for a while dude, and read something like "Common Things", or "Nickle and Dimed in America", or "Chasing the Red, White, and Blue." parsy.
That isn't an argument. When something starts is irrelevant. What's relevant is if it works and wether or not it is compatible with rights.
If you can demand that an employer pay his workers a wage over and above what he and his workers have agreeded upon then it logically follows that somebody can demand that you pay a price for groceries over and above what you and the supermarket have agreed upon.
Gov't has always had to regulate business.
Government hasn't had to do anything. Government does what those in power want it to do. If those in power want to plunder then that's what government does. If those in power want to advance an agenda at the expense of taxpayers then that's what government does. If those in power believe in free-entrprise and competition then government stays out of the way.
In "Libertarian World", gov'ts aren't supposed to do this, but that is "theory".
In a Libertarian society government would be confined to two duties: 1) protecting people and their property, 2) maintaining justice.
The real world works differently. Put down Ayn Rand for a while dude, and read something like "Common Things", or "Nickle and Dimed in America", or "Chasing the Red, White, and Blue."
None of that is an argument.
