> I have no problem with free market capitalism, if it's fair.

Free market capitalism isn't fair. All the dynamics and mechanics of capitalism have nothing to do with fairness.



I should have qualified that statement more. What I meant was I am against rigging the system and cronyism. "Free market" was the wrong term. I prefer a market that is overlooked by society, with the authority given to government. It's a balance that is still unfair in a lot of aspects of course, because with a winner there is a loser. But the fairness comes in the fact that anyone can be a winner. We're still working on that obviously.


Overseen also. Overlooked? Well.. that already happens.
