Free market capitalism requires sound monetary policy and a sound currency, the latter of which implies low inflation. Fre market capitalism does not connote wild anarchy in business dealings.

And despite the claims that we haven't had a free market for 100 years, that's nonsense. If anyone wants to go out and start a business, who's stopping them? The entire job growth in this latest expansion has come from small business...households forming startups. That is free market.

Just recently in my area, a big, urban developer tried to get one of his radical environmentalist concubines/employees into office as a commissioner in a rural area outside of his city, so that she could run interference against small developments. Similar tactics of the past in the lumber industry led to the interesting situation we have in that market, too.
