Free market? Is that the place someone goes to buy a unicorn or make a deal with a leprechaun?
The “free market” is the VOLUNTARY cooperation between buyers and sellers in the marketplace free from government interference. If there is supply and demand for unicorns or leprechaun sellers, I guess you do that I suppose.
One thing is certain. 1800’s America was built on the free market economy when government was in the deep background at around 5% GDP. It was the free market economy that made America the most powerful and wealthiest nation in the world.
