    ^ Answer to free markets dilemma..
    There was a free market Homeopathic/Natural Medicine, and Allopathy <- least popular most profit potential.. this won.

    Medical profession was a free market but the robber baron types like rockefeller institutionalized it. By building the institutions around allopathic medicine. They formed the medical associations, built universities and made a campaigns in the press calling natural health or homeopath doctors quacks. Regardless of what worked prosecution of doctors eventually followed and alternative form became standard practice. They basically created the industry so they can profit from it. Nobody stopped them.

    There is really no telling where it would be now if it was left alone however holistic is making a comeback because there is more evidence on what works and is cheaper less. at the same time you have fda raiding doctors and farms.

    I am starting to think that since free markets are based on choices.
    And if the choice are not legislated. If the people making choices are informed truthfully with real information(not propaganda) then choices can be made effectively.

    However if you have a free market and the people are propagandized, or the culture is fukked up then can people make effective choices? can markets overcome lies and deceit?
    I dont know.

    what is the ultimate goal in controlling people?. IF you control the thinking mechanism of the mind, via propaganda, lies, myth, scramble peoples morals, ability to think then you have their freedom easy.. just ask @utopian perfect example. Thats the best way to conquer an enemy. let them destroy themselves.
