Taking Five And Returning Four Is Not

But How Is This Legal Plunder To Be Identified? Quite Simply. See If The Law Takes From Some Persons What Belongs To Them And Gives It To Other Persons To Whom It Does Not Belong. See If The Law Benefits One Citizen At The Expense Of Another By Doing What The Citizen Himself Cannot Do Without Committing A Crime.

No Legal Plunder: This Is The Principle Of Justice, Peace, Order, Stability, Harmony, And Logic. Until The Day Of My Death, I Shall Proclaim This Principle With All The Force Of My Lungs (which Alas! Is All Too Inadequate).

The Creation Of New Capital Always... Releases... Labor. Its Actual Effect [though] Is Not To Make Jobs Scarce, But To Free Men's Labor For Other Jobs.

The Profit Of The One Is The Profit Of The Other.

When, Then, Does Plunder Stop? It Stops When It Becomes More Painful And More Dangerous Than Labor.
