There is no such thing as a free market. It has always been regulated to some degree or other by legalities or agencies.

Capitalism is one form of applying a principle to government as is Socialism. They both have their uses and are found in Sweden, Norway, Canada, Germany and other civilized countries.

This either-or mythology explains why everyone gets so excited at the prospect of one form of government or another taking over as if a monolithic monster. It has never happened and never will. There will always be mitigating circumstances unless our country goes completely fascist.
