I love that everyone is arguing “facts” vs “facts” vs emotion vs yada, yada, yada.
Just goes to show that well meaning individual people just don’t know and only agree on compromises that have unintended consequences.
The free market solves all of this. People vote with their feet and the dollars go to the best ideas. Bad ideas fail. Ineffecient companies fail. Good ideas and companies succeed. Everyone is better off.
When harm is done in the free market, public opinion, then the courts, then legislatures will step in to first stop it and then dole out justice. Those risks will keep the free markets behavior in check in almost all cases. (yes I know, Enron, housing mess, overpaid CEOs etc are all good counter arguements but those do get fixed in the majority of cases)
As seen here, when government fails there never seems to be a fix.
