This is not true. Pragmatic (not ideological) national policy combining market and well calibrated government intervention usually worked very well.

Yeah, how well has that worked for Japan since 1989?

Why SINCE 1989? What about BEFORE 1989? Japan transformed from the Third World country into the leading economical power. Most of the Third World countries would gladly had Japanese post 1989 problems (BTW, Japan is not doing so bad even after 1989 and USA is getting deeper into the debt with Japan).
