Not Free

It's almost humorist listening to Leftist Socialist criticize the American free Market system. Especially when we haven't had a free market economy in America for well over 100 years. A free market economy is based on “the best product or service at the best price.” It's all based on the idea that one can produce and sell a product or service that people will buy. What keeps the price down is that someone else will also produce that product or service and try to out sell the first person or out preform them. Enter the US Federal Government. In it's wisdom, it started to try to control businesses and the economy. It now totally regulates the economy. The feds have put regulations on businesses and imposed laws that cost companies emoney and that hurts their profit. Just take the current situation with the oil industry. The government has come in and all but shut that American industry down. If you haven't noticed it? You will at the gas pump very soon. But to hear someone criticize capitalism, is a JOKE! The US economy has nothing to do with capitalism anymore...not even close. Now that big corporations are buying off government officials and politicians. We now have what the Nobel Prize Winning economist Milton Freedman called the worst possible situation. Big Government and Big Business in bed Together! Just look at the Gamestop stock market odyssey in January of this year. There weren't any calls from government officials to investigate the hedge funds trying to destroy the company. No they called for investigations into all the Redit people that cost those hedge funds billions of dollars. I Rest My Case!
