cognate / copy rite // Mises on labor

[mikebailey at speakeasy.net]

x'd my mind that the populist movement in the midwest (including mine strikers, grange movements, Haymarket, all that action) is sort of like the Protestant Reformation - and similar in that what gave Luther's objections strength was people in Germany got sick of paying indulgences to build churches in Rome

what is very different about people in Nebraska getting sick of paying mortgages to build skyscrapers in New York?

Indulgences are very similar to fiat money...

pastures of plenty -- this kind of plenitude would only be strengthened by people getting paid some kinda way for their Pynchon research; I don't have to be a big fan of copyright legislation (though I think even Lysander Spooner thought it was ok) to still support with my money when I have it the market for those products

Mises on labor as a commodity is where I think he goes astray.  
"No you fucking fuck, labor is not a commodity" I want to say.  
Hey, that rhymes.
