Re: Understanding
<The free market has an overriding interest--profit--which is not always in tune with the needs of people.
If a product or service does not meet the needs of people, it ain't profitable. That's why the free market works so well. Although there are legitimate functions of government, a large chunk of the taxpayers money is spent on things that would not have money spent on them if people were not forced. And most of it is counterproductive.
