Occutard Displays Economic Ignorance

In a free society, there can be no such thing as a free commodity. A commodity is a good or service that is produced by human endeavors.    Before one eat a ham sandwich, someone needs to grown the grain, mill the flour, feed the hogs, butcher the pig, slice the ham etc.   All these activities are done by people, who in a free society fully expect, and indeed deserve, to get paid for their efforts.

Not according to occutard,  one Harrison Schultz, from Meenal Vamburkar, Mediaite [1]:

Schultz said the model is broken. Asked why, he said, “it is failing people, such as myself.” Hannity then told him: “Maybe if you weren’t spending your time with the quote, homeless people who were brought in by the police to rape people, maybe you could have been out looking for a job?”

Hannity pursued his point about Schultz, and those like him, wanting things for free. “Who is going to pay for your house, car, dental care, health care, education, who pays for that?” he asked. Schultz replied, “Nobody! It’s free.”

Cars do not  exist because somehow God made them. No rather they only exist because autoworkers built them. In Harrison’s world, autoworkers would be slaves.

I note that Schultz is at least smart enough to name socialism as a preferable alternative to the market economy.  Yet just what does Schultz propose, or what can propose, for an economic system which grow wheat without the need for wheat farmers and fill cavities without the need for dentists?  What known system does a better job of growing wheat and filling cavities than does the market economy?  I dare say none.  Which is why Schultz is mum on what his Alice in Wonderland economic system may be.
