Tyrannical Factionism: When one group gains political power and imposes a kind of tyranny on the minority factions via that power
was considered by the founding fathers to be the cause of the historical demise of all democratic genus governments. Their solution to this historical problem of democracy was civic rights, checks and balances, and the U.S. Constitution
all focused at stopping any one political faction in America from coming to enough power to be able to impose a kind of tyranny on the other political factions.
Economic Tyrannical Factionism: When one group gains political power and imposes a kind of tyranny on the minority factions via the power to regulate economics.
To give a bureaucrat power over economics is to give said bureaucrat power over every aspect of your life to one degree or another, as economics bleeds into every aspect of your life to one degree or another two time economic Nobel prize winner F. A. Hayek.
Currently in America we are suffering from another form of Tyrannical Factionism known as Economic Tyrannical Factionism; from which we have no limiting documentation, rights, laws, constitution, or effective checks and balances to protect us. Economic Tyrannical Factionism, be it from a tyranny of The Left, The Right, or Business is causing the downfall of both democracy and economics worldwide and will continue to do so unless this great problem of our time can be solved.
Solutions
As the U.S. Constitution, checks and balances, and civic rights protect us from the problem of Tyrannical Factionism, so to should it be possible to have similar economic constitutional rights and methods to protect us from Economical Tyrannical Factionim.
1. Competitors Rights
In order for a business, or any group, to truly start to gain at the health and wealth expense of The People, any group of people, they must first eliminate or suppress their competition. In order to give an unfair wage and sales price you must first eliminate those who would give a far fairer wage and sales price.
It is for this reason that 80+% of all that Business does in a Business + Government relationship concerns its self with the suppression or out right elimination of their competition via some form of governmental favoritism in law or subsidy.
To protect The People and Business alike from Economic Tyrannical Factionism, and to promote high levels of fairness in economics, we propose that it should be a constitutional / economic right of all to compete
unaided and unhindered, particularly, to the health and wealth gain of The People, all people, both foreign and domestic, over time. An inalienable human right of all currently often denied.
2. The Right to Gainful Economics
Having protected both the business mans and The Peoples right to compete, in does us no good to protect the competitive rights, nor the rights in general, of fundamentally destructive economic endeavors that do nothing to uplift, but rather oppress, humanity. For the purpose of protecting the competitive and engaging rights of good / healthy economic practices, and condemning the bad, we propose the fallowing as economic rights.
1. Everyone has the right to engage in and be engaged by healthy economics. No one can limit this right.
2. It is against basic human rights law to impose unhealthy economics on persons un-consenting.
3. On an individual basis ever only can persons consent to being engaged by unhealthy economics.
Good / healthy economics: economics is the process by which humanity generates wealth
not steals, pillages, destroys, or takes from one to give to another (redistributes)
but actually generates wealth and increased health.
Good economics sees an increase in the health, wealth, and happiness
in one word prosperity
of all persons affected. Increased standard of living for all engaged in or affected by an economic practice over time = good economics. A decrease to any = bad economics.
An Explanatory
The Right to Gainful Economics judges economic practices on an individual level and protects the competitive rights of good economic practices while condemning the bad.
Competitors rights laws removes the problem of the human element
the inability to rely on any man or group of men to regulate economics
and instead puts emphasis on the laws of healthy competition as the primary regulatory force to generate a fair and rightful compensation for labor and risk between Business and The People, all peoples, in economics
I.E. fairness for all in economics.
By protecting competitors rights from big business to the lemonade stand on the street the effective destruction of Business + Gov. can be achieved as Business has no way to suppress and gain via the power of law and nothing to well fear from a People + Government. Thus it is that with Businesss removal from government via the protection from competitors rights, the peoples government once again becomes The Peoples government.
In short, the American people get their government back, Business get the healthy economic specific freedom from protection to thrive like never before to the gain of all. And The People, by relinquishing a governmental control over economics they never had in the first place to the laws of good / healthy competition
will find that they gain far more economic control as well as fairness in an ever increasingly gainful economic system.
In one fell swoop, by protecting and imposing good / healthy economic competition, the beast of Economic Tyrannical Factionism, the great doom of our time, can be slain.

In my experience the best works... don't... get... posted on.
Case in point of how many people actually read Hayek, Ryn, Adam Smith.
Oh well.
