Free market barriers
From Free Talk Live
(Redirected from Free market barrier)
A free market barrier is any legislation which keeps the market from being a free market. Examples include trade barriers, price caps, and trade licensing.
Here is a list of topics I hope to eventually get around to adding. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
- Price caps
- Minimum wage
- Trade licensing
- Trade barriers
- Tariffs
- Restrictive quotas
- Anti-dumping measures
- Excise taxes
- Copyright
- Bankruptcy
- U.S. Postal Service (as an example of an industry where competition is illegal)
- Prohibition (for example, illegal to sell prohibited drugs)
- Subsidies
- Barrier to entry (this is more of a general term for Trade Licensing, but also includes legitimate costs such as cost of storefront, cost of producst, etc.)
