The "free" in "free market" doesn't mean "free of restriction".
It means "free of coercion".
The free market is an artificial meritocracy of productivity, which is protected by fair rules and strict enforcement from the natural meritocracy of extreme violence.
We choose the artificial meritocracy over the natural one because we want to minimize violence, and maximize productivity.
An unrestricted market is not free, is never free, is the least free of all markets, because the optimal strategy in an unrestricted market is to gather an army and enslave all your neighbors.
He who must compete with a slave cannot be free.
@Artemisfornow The average migrant requires the full economic output of 3 average Brits to support, and that is before you multiply it for all their extended family dependents. One of these afghans might end up committing 50 or more Brits when alls said and done. This is why we are poor now.
It’s important to disregard the opinions of any non-white person who moves to a white country and makes a living denigrating “whiteness” and insulting white people. The gap between their stated and revealed preferences is so vast that it seems better explained by mental illness than mere hypocrisy.
There’s an entire non-white world out there for you to write about this stuff! You don’t have to live in the West.
The first thing an Indian does when arriving in the UK is to learn all the unwritten rules of our society. Not to fit in - to exploit them as loopholes.
@cosmorxn You need only to watch them dropping litter on the ground to understand that the highest caste of Indian is far below the lowest class of Westerner
