Charles Amos joins Josh to discuss his article in The Critic "Fair Pay is Fiction."  We discuss how pay should be set by the free market and not determined by the state.  Charles talks about how imposing their notion of fair pay on a person is a violation of that person's self ownership by denying them the ability to freely negotiate their pay rate with their would-be employer.  Charles says, "The principle of human respect requires people be free of the violence of the state attempting to impose its own phoney notion of fair pay on them."   Charles' article in The Critic:   https://thecritic.co.uk/fair-pay-is-a-fiction/   Follow Charles' Substack and X:   https://themusingindividualist.substack.com/ https://x.com/mrcharlesamos   Books Charles Recommends that discusses this topic::   F.
