……能够体会到任何真正的劳动力自由市场。我能想到的一个例子就是矿工，他们通常掌握着高度专业化的技能，并且生活在几乎没有其他就业机会的地区（如果你对细节感兴趣，我强烈推荐 Henry Caudill 写的《坎伯兰的黄昏》）。我不确定零工经济从业者是否处于完全相同的境地，但在涉及劳动力的问题上，别轻信什么自由市场的说法。
…able to experience any real free market for labor. One that comes to mind is miners, who often develop highly-specialized skills and live in areas with few other opportunities (I can highly recommend Night Comes to the Cumberlands by Henry Caudill if you’re interested in the details). I’m not sure if gig economy workers are in exactly the same boat, but be skeptical of free market claims when it comes to labor.
我是西弗吉尼亚人。（北部狭长地带）如果有人对煤矿产区的历史感兴趣，推荐一本很棒的书，Harry M. Caudill 写的《坎伯兰的黄昏：一个萧条地区的传记》（Night Comes to the Cumberlands: A Biography of a Depressed Area），1962 年出版。https://www.amazon.com/Night-Comes-Cumberlands-Biography-Dep... https://archive.org/stream/nightcomestocumb1963caud/nightcom...……

到 1962 年，煤矿业的大规模就业岗位就已经消失了。去读读《坎伯兰的黄昏》吧。美国大部分煤炭都来自怀俄明州的露天开采。
Massive coal mining employment was gone by 1962. Read "Night Comes to the Cumberlands". Most US coal comes from strip mining in Wyoming.
……麦考密克收割机。[1] 1900 年至 1930 年间，农业就业人数减半。产量上去了。小麦更便宜了。1950 年到 1970 年的煤炭开采也是如此。产量上去了。煤炭更便宜了。就业人数断崖式下跌。经典好书《坎伯兰的黄昏》（1963）讲的就是阿巴拉契亚地区是如何彻底陷入贫困的。[1] https://www.gilderlehrman.org/history-resources/teacher-reso...
…McCormick reaper.[1] Farm employment dropped by half between 1900 and 1930. Production up. Wheat cheaper. Coal mining from 1950-1970. Production up. Coal cheaper. Employment way down. Classic book, "Night Comes to the Cumberlands" (1963) on how Appalachia became really poor. [1] https://www.gilderlehrman.org/history-resources/teacher-reso...
