    I mean, within set boundaries, it can work pretty well. Having it entirely free is demonstrably a bad idea for all but like 17 people.

      indeed. but when using the term “free market”, regulation and consumer protection is sort of the opposite of what people picture. i have no doubt it would change the dynamics since the economy tends to fill whatever space it’s given, but you could not get away with calling it a free market solution.
