Markets have their uses, but they only work well when certain conditions hold. There must be low barrier to entry of new competitors, low cost of switching for customers, and it must be easy for customers to determine the quality of the goods (i.e the goods must be Search Goods or Experience Goods, not Credence Goods). Markets work well for commodities like food or clothing, but you’d have to be corrupt or insane to advocate a free market approach to healthcare or infrastructure.
Great comment, this is why market as religion, accepted uncritically, without restraints always fails.
The market should be viewed kind of like sports. Without fair rules, everything favors a few psychopaths, nobody cares even as the whole society gets plundered into the ground.
When market is religion, people expect a wrench to take out screws from a thick beam of wood. Market is just one tool among many.
Milton Friedman would disagree. However, even he espoused a healthcare system whose cash payment was subsidized by the government to the individual. Where he different in that issue was that he wanted choice to exist among health care providers one chooses.
The wait lines of national health care providers are one argument against them, though.
Meh, we’ve had state capitalism for over 80 years. It don’t work so hot . . .
