Unit 4 
The Limit On Economic Freedom

              A person is economcally free, if he can do what he wishes with his own property, time and effort.
              In all communities , of course, limits are set upon this personal freedom.
              In some countries the limits are complex; in others they are relatively simple.
             All individual are required to conform to the laws made by governments
             Complete economic freedom of action can cause great difficulties, because the freedoms of various
              individuals will conflict.
             If citizens were completely free, some landowners might build factories in unsuitable place.
             If there was no system of control, factory-owners might take their employees ork too long each day. 
             If they were completely free, workers might stop working when they got their first pay, and come      back to do more work only when they need more money.
            Such economic freedom could create a very unstable economy.
            Laws related to economic conditions are sometimes concerned with workers' health, wages and pensions.
           They are sometimes concerned with contracts between employers and employees.
           They are sometimes concerned with the location of places of work.
           Sometimes they help the employers; sometimes they protect the interest of the workers.
