The idea of some utopian society with a "true" free market where nobody has an advantage over anyone else is unrealistic at best.
No one is suggesting anything like that.
Question: where does this idea that it has to be a utopia to be better than what we have come from? I think a less regulated market would be superior to what we have... nothing more nothing less.
Everyone seems to agree what we have is shyt, but is afraid to move away from the status quo.
