The guy who got AKed could have burned his draft card, gone to jail for a few years and loose his SS benefits.
That's not fun either, but he wouldn't have died in a jungle half way across the world a young twenty-something to prop up the cowboy delusions of Kissinger.
Not more just. But when the situation is more asymetrical the more farcical the powerful side's complaints of the weaker's perfidy. (Tons of examples. The most universally accepted were Germans killing 1-10 civilians in retaliation for dishonorable uninformed partisans)
You could, theoretically, leave the USSR, if you paid back what society had invested in you. De facto it was very hard to leave
You can quit your job. Except many of us de facto can't (H1B1, non compete clauses, etc)
Leaving Yugoslavia was probably easier than being an Indian engineer on an H1B working for a company with a non compete clause.
Btw, I don't think Hayek or any of the Austrians had very benign attitudes towards multinationals or large corporations: Begging for tax payer largess, ghostwriting regulations creating artificial barriers to entry, abusing immigration law to have a de facto slave. Mises and Rothbard would tut tut. And they were the hard core anti commies!
(The national post had a great series of articles about it. The Canadian newspaper sided with Trump against Canada's diary industry.)
Btw, Milk costs double in Canada than in the states. Tastes better though (well sour cream and yoghurt do. I hate milk). On the other hand cheese is much better in the states cause I can afford the European stuff here (100% import tarriff???) and there is more diversity in aisles.
As to the hormone part of my OP, no claim, at least no strong claim, was made. I just pointed out that, if your production is restricted, it doesn't make sense to pump your cows full of hormones.
Canadian diary industry is very different from the US, so it's not obvious that you'd find hormones in the milk (there are per cow milk production quotas). Certainly not in the quantities found in US milk.

How can you counterfeit money with an inkjet? You'll get caught in days (wrong paper, streaking, poor quality print) with or without the dots. You'd have to be blind not to notice the difference, but then you'd feel the difference. Heck, you could hear the difference. Smell the difference. Troublesome counterfeiting is more sophisticated than a $100 throw away printer.
The Stasi took fingerprints of every typewritter so people couldn't publish illegal things. This is not hostile only if the state is defined as non hostile.
Why forget the dates after the effort shoving them in?
And why not ask what is the value of knowing the dates of important events? The polish school system is hardly unique in this requirement.
I hated memorizing dates as a kid. Horrible at short term memory. But I was good at putting them in long term memory. Now what I hated anchors my understanding of history.
For example, does the modern Polish state obtaining independence have any meaning except in the 20s and 30s? (That is after the fall of the Czar, after WW1, before the Molotov pact). Despite Polish longing, 1917 had to happen. 1917 is an anchor.
Or consider that the discovery of America, 1492, happened less than 40 years after the fall of Constantinople and in the same year as the fall of Granada (ending the Reconquista). 1492 (and 1453) is another anchor
Agreed. But how many ppl are in low security vs. max security?
How easy is it politically to build a min security facility in an area affluent enough to have day jobs for prisoners vs. building a max security prison in the middle of unemployed nowhere?
Well no, because of lack of general availability. But I pay extra for many things to avoid certain corporate behaviour. In a free market, that's my right. We're trying to wean ourselves off of Amazon, in fact, but we're a one-car family, and Prime is an amazing service.
I'm not entitled to their labour, I can't afford higher price labour (well I can). Also, middle class salaries can barely afford current rates (in this forum we're mostly upper middle class or higher. A lot looks cheap to us. Do the math for the cost to salary for a child care facility. Costs a fortune even for us, yet the employees are getting paid peanuts. )
Which, if there is a real labour shortage, is fine with me. I'll just forgo the project I wanted to build, build less. Whatever.
But there isn't a labour shortage. At least not when you look at particulars segments, locations, past-histories, ect.
I'm not trying to push any ideology here. I'm just saying that the economy, actually, sucks despite what point estimates that grossly overgeneralize are saying. It sucked under Bush. It sucked more under Obama. And it getting suckier under Trump.
Why? I don't know. In the meantime hire a local contractor and pay them double their rate (or give the employees a tip == to the cost of the service < this is what I do to my monthly cleaners)
