Sound familiar? Bastiat also discovered another dynamic - beyond a desire to appropriate - that lies behind legitimate plunder: "false compassion". Once again, he realized the contradiction. If philanthropy is not voluntary, it destroys freedom and justice. The law cannot give people anything without first taking them from their own owners, he applies such analysis to all forms of government interventions, from import and export taxes to the so-called public education. Bastiat recalled Adam Smith's conviction "of men of the system", that is, those who viewed the people as mere black pawns, moved on the board by people. In order to fulfill their goals, lawmakers must eliminate human diversity, because diversity will interfere with the plans they make. Forced obedience (is there any other way?) Is a must. Bastiat quotes a few writers in this bias, then replies: Raccoon aladdin flying I can show you some trash poster. Forced labor protection Please consider a quote from Bossuet [Prince of the Crown Prince in the court of Louis XIV]: One of the problems that plunged (by whom?) Into the mind of the Egyptians was patriotism ... No one is allowed to be useless to the state. The law states that each person does one thing, hereditary. No one is allowed to have two occupations. No one moves from one profession to another… But there is one task that all must perform: the study of law and wisdom. Disregard for religion and political regulations, under any circumstances, is not tolerated. Furthermore, each profession is assigned (by whom?) To a district… Among the good laws, the best law is that everyone must be trained (by whom?) To obey the law. As a result, Egypt is full of great inventions and nothing is left out that makes life easy and calm.
