Reply #5: nonsense, ask any free-marketeer. there's ALWAYS an answer within their worldview! [View All]

in this case, if "death" is oh-so-undesireable, then miners will simply demand higher wages from employers who skirt on safety. the fact that there are all these otherwise unemployed people scrambling to take these risky jobs at low pay simply proves that your obsession over this whole "death" thing is just you imposing your liberal values on the free market.

if everyone actually agreed with you, then riskier companies would have to pay more for their workers, which would make them uncompetitive and they would go out of business, and so the free market would take care of the problem.

but obviously you're wrong and the free market it right.



:sarcasm:

see how easy it is to be a free-marketeer? just start from the premise that you're always right and work backwards from there.
