Free Trade Requires Just Regulation
Free trade should not equate to the absence of all regulations; instead, it should be free from oppressive and unjust restraints that hinder individuals from utilizing their labor and capital. There is a recognition that historical feudal laws and the influence of wealthy private interests can create barriers. The government can play a beneficial role by supporting working people, as lawmakers historically favor the owning class. Therefore, any regulation that supports workers against the ownership class is considered just and necessary, underscoring a pro-capitalism stance that acknowledges the need for equitable treatment in economic policies.
