"The Market" is an illusion maintained to occlude the fact that we have a "Centrally Planned Market" amongst a Cartel of Megacorporations that are working in tandem to "compete" against everything outside of the Unipolar Anglo-American Empire.

There isn't actually a "Free Market" in anything-- there is a Cartel that you are forced by law to engage with on a contractural basis. You literally cannot desist from contracting with the Cartel-- because it controls literally everything.

There has never been a "Free Market" in the sense that people imagine-- in fact-- the hypothetical "Free Market" that Classical Economist Libertarians describe is *the potential future* of Communism, but it has never existed in reality. It's a hypothetical construct.

To actually have a "Free Market" in medicine, you would have ever doctor working for the State-- & you, as a client, would be able to contract with any of them. If a doctor had bad reviews, you wouldn't have to use their services because "it's the only one in my insurance"

This is what Social Democrats will never understand about Marx-- Marx was a Classical Economist, which is, a Republican Theorist over the Authoritarian Management of the Commonwealth. That's what "Economics" is-- as an Art-- it is the Art of State with regard to Markets.

This is why, if you took someone like Ron Paul, & you forced them to be serious about what it would take to construct the "Free Market" he describes-- it means literally Unitary Executive Authority over the Treasury of the Commonwealth. End the Fed means that lol.

Ron Paul doesn't actually want the Banks who ostensibly "own" by lease the Houses, Cars, & Farms of American Citizens to seize them back because "the Free Market means the exact letter of the law"-- Libertarians are much closer to Communism than "Social Democrats" are.

Imagine, if you will, what a "Free Market under Hyperabundance" looks like-- it would mean the maximally efficient allocation of goods-- aka-- Communism lol

We want "The Maximally Efficient Allocation of the Most Goods Possible (& More)" -- that's what Communism is & also what every Libertarian in America describes as their ideal economic system. Curious, no?
