Talk:Barrier to entry (view source)
Revision as of 19:58, December 26, 2009
, 19:58, December 26, 2009bias - should not have copied Wikipedia slant
:I don't think this is what is usually meant by "barrier to entry". Isn't it more often an artificial, anti-competitive barrier? In some cities, a barber or hairdresser must take a six-month course and pass an anatomy test - not because of a desire on the part of the city fathers to ensure competence or safety, but rather to [[protectionism|protect]] the jobs of established workers. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 13:57, 26 December 2009 (EST)

::The ideas in this article seems to have been copied from Wikipedia, where the article makes free markets look "closed" - another typical case of anti-Capitalist bias. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 14:58, 26 December 2009 (EST)
