Monopolies only survive by state power.<br /><br />There is no role for the state in a free market. Start from there, not from the assumption we need state intervention, and you'll start asking the right questions.<br /><br />JOhnJohn Wiley Spiershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17912149116679736768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-878781244953948813.post-25545408210110331482015-07-03T10:57:31.076-07:002015-07-03T10:57:31.076-07:00The problem with completely free markets:

The U.S. is actually instigating conflict with other countries, like Russia, Iran and China. The media is not giving the American public an accurate picture of what is going on in the rest of the world. How can the U.S. government support the apparently Nazi government in Ukraine? Is it just because they are anti-Russian?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
