All these things aren't some law of physics; they are the product of politics, and that is the product of an interventionist ideology.

I would LOVE to leave politics out of this, but all the points you list are the result of politicians interfering with our natural, productive, healthy and voluntary human interactions. Free trade is: you want to buy and I want to sell and no politician interferes. I've been in business for 30 years and a student of economics since twenty. Don't presume you know what I am.
