“To condemn free-market capitalism because of anything going on today makes no sense. There is no evidence that capitalism exists today. We are deeply involved in an interventionist-planned economy that allows major benefits to accrue to the politically connected of both political parties. One may condemn the fraud and the current system, but it must be called by its proper names Keynesian inflationism, interventionism, and corporatism.” MayTodayPoliticalNamesPartyEconomyInvolvedBenefitsMajorsEvidenceCapitalismCurrentsConnectedFraudPolitical PartiesFree MarketCorporatismFree Market CapitalismInterventionism Book:Pillars of Prosperity: Free Markets, Honest Money, Private Property Source: Pillars of Prosperity: Free Markets, Honest Money, Private Property

“"Free markets" is a very general term. There are all sorts of problems that will emerge. Free markets work best when the transaction between two individuals affects only those individuals. Most often, a transaction between you and me affects a third party. That is the source of all problems for government. That is the source of all pollution problems, of the inequality problem. This reality ensures that the end of history will never come.” TwoEndsProblemRealityGovernmentIndividualTermPartySourceThirdsInequalityPollutionFree MarketTransactionsThird PartiesBetween You And Me Author:Milton Friedman
