Charles Johnson On How Government Creates Poverty as We Know It

Alliance of the Libertarian Left comrade Charles Johnson has a great new piece in the Foundation for Economic Education’s journal The Freeman, “Scratching By: How Government Creates Poverty as We Know It“.

Excerpt follows:

“Government anti-poverty programs are a classic case of the therapeutic state setting out to treat disorders created by the state itself. Urban poverty as we know it is, in fact, exclusively a creature of state intervention in consensual economic dealings.”
