Which model do you think stimulates economic growth more? Which model could be said to give individuals more liberty?

Socialism and authoritarianism are treacherous ideas because they can seem so enticing in many contexts.

I don't think a required severance period for long term employees would have a notable impact on economic growth. And making it easier to give notice is good for individual liberty and the ability to change jobs when desired.

And while we're looking at the intersection of socialism, employment, and freedom, moving health care away from employment and toward the government would be a big boost to individual liberty.
