The Right to Earn a Living

Meer over het boek

Exploring the evolution of the right to earn a living, the book traces its historical significance from the founding principles of America to the Civil War Amendments that broadened its protections. It highlights the impact of Progressive-era judicial decisions that undermined these rights and examines contemporary challenges, such as restrictive occupational licensing and regulatory overreach. By addressing the tension between government regulation and individual freedom, it underscores the ongoing struggle to reclaim this essential economic liberty.
