Hayenmill believe me, out of all the Free Market guys here, your the only that is capable of intelligent discourse, so you'd be fine.

Well, that's your opinion. I'm sure Jazzratt, Dean, IcarusAngel, Wolf Larson, anticap, Kwisatz Haderach, etc would disagree

Anyway, thanks for the kind words.

While not agreeing with that statement in particular, your brand of free-market ideology is far more palatable because you attempt a much more rational notion of economic freedom, since you have the ability to understand systems of economic control today (and other systems of centralized control) for their character as unrepresentative of the people whom they affect.

That is to say, that you understand that the actual economic control people have is an important determining factor in how economically free a society is. I think the notion that perfect competition can be achieved is preposterous, but therein lies the rub, as they say...

That's right, I don't.

For starters, it's impossible to have Zero Entry/Exit Barriers. What I aim is to abolish artificial ones.

Wow, your ideology is even more incomprehensible than I previously thought.

The working class will somehow maintain its economic integrity via competition - and yet you don't think this would require some form of perfect competition between actors?

I don't think you even believe that there is a system that will provide for a balanced competitive market. As usual, its just your idealistic fantasy playing out as bizarre economic "theory."

It does not require perfect competition. What it does require is lack of artificial barriers to entry/exit

Ad hominem, comrade.
