Government intervention in markets, whether through wealth taxes, living wage mandates, or stadium subsidies, creates unintended negative consequences because it distorts price signals and reduces economic efficiency. When people support policies like taxing billionaires or forcing living wages, they often fail to understand that these interventions ultimately harm the very people they intend to help by reducing employment opportunities and economic growth. The moral argument against initiating force (taxation) is reinforced by practical economic evidence that such policies typically generate modest revenue while causing significant economic distortions and capital flight.
