THE FREE MARKET: It’s like Uber, but for everything! “Uber has been hit with complaints that it’s running ‘an Objectivist LARP,’ a live-action role playing of a capitalist utopia from an Ayn Rand novel. That’s pretty much what it is doing, and the results are awesome. And the benefits don’t stop with more drivers and lower rates. Uber is ploughing a fair portion of its profits into another wave of technological innovation—self-driving cars—that promises to offer even greater improvements in the future. All of this should counter some of the despair about how to promote free markets, especially among urban elites who have been programmed by their college educations to embrace the rhetoric of the Left. Give them half a chance, and they will flock to capitalist innovations run according to the laws of the market. The problem is that they don’t want to admit it. That’s where the euphemism ‘ride-sharing’ comes in.”
