Williams received a bachelor's degree in economics from California State University in 1965, a master's degree in 1967 and a doctorate in 1972 in economics from the University of California at Los Angeles. He currently is a Professor of Economics at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia. He has also served on many other faculties such as, Los Angeles City College, California State University and Temple University. He was also a group supervisor for juvenile delinquents for the Los Angeles County Probation Department from 1963-1967. Williams recalls that his work with juvenile delinquents was very challenging and stressful and after four years he needed to move on. Williams has written more than 50 publications and almost all of them have appeared in scholarly journals, such as The Economic Inquiry, American Economic Review and The Social Science Quarterly. He was very proud when 2 of his publications made it to the Wall Street Journal and Newsweek. He also made many appearances on T.V. shows such as Nightline, Crossfire and Face the Nation. Alon

I would have to agree free markets and private property are the best for our society but it does have some downfalls. , according to the Fugitive Slave Act, penalties were given to any person who was found of aiding and abetting. Another controversial issue with Williams occurs in Nazi, Germany. Some articles that Willaims has written that have caused heated debates include: "Should All Laws be Obeyed" and "Yours or Mine". I would like to see him become more popular and maybe even a new spokesman for the black community. The question arises, "What would happen to our society if the people decided what laws to obey or disobey? " during the apartheid in South Africa, some moral acting whites disobeyed the South African constitution and did not persecute the blacks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------**Bibliography**. It just takes some good, moral people to disobey them, and restore natural rights to everyone else in society. He disagrees with the slave act declaring it immoral. " In a brief summary of some of Williams's works, I would have to agree mainly with what he says. Williams' test is that if he can sell his property, then he owns it, therefore, he can not own them. "It was illegal to conceal Jews or assist them in escape" (Williams, 1997). Williams also has interesting points on private property and ownership. Williams feels private property or structures receive better than publicly owned property.
