The is no such thing as the " Free Market." If there is, I'd like
you to show it to me. If you can't show it to me, then you are no
different from other superstitionists who claim there is a heaven and Hell.

Johnson is completely whacky. He doesn't even live on this planet.
I wonder if he believes in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy as well?

What BOTH you guys are dismissing, is that all this grew out of Capitalism,
and now you claim that it's not Capitalism. But of course it is. Because
the essentials have not changed. Private ownership of the means of production,
and the coersion of the State to protect private property ( the Rich ).

This is true for Capitalism or other forms of economies where society
is organized as a powerful state.

More bullshit from Ludwig. There is no reason that it has to be either or.
Both have failed miserably. The Commies are dead. Now it's the turn of
Capitalism.
Enjoy it while it lasts boys. Capitalism is now bumping up against Nature.
Nature NEVER, NEVER loses.
