Re: Free market--NOT !
Gee Tom, please get real here. Surely you recognize the world oil prices are controlled and set via quota by OPEC?
This is NOT an example of free market forces. Contortions of reality will not make it so.
In fact, it is hard to find a non-regulated, pure laizzer passer market anywhere.
Certainly the market for Cocaine and pot respond to the artificial scarcity of criminal restriction....help me out here, let us find where free market forces exist.
