📐 Unity of Economic and Political Freedom

Economic control is not control of a separate sector of life but control of the means for all our ends. Whoever has sole control of the means must also determine which ends are to be served.

Proof: Economic freedom means freedom to choose how we earn and spend our income. Without it, there is no freedom of the press (you need printing resources), no freedom of movement (you need transportation), no effective freedom at all. All freedoms require economic means for their exercise.
