I also stumbled across this today.
Thanks for the Wal-Mart article. It boggles the mind to think of the prosperity we would have if only our markets were truly free. Thank God for innovators like Sam Walton.
Awesome!
Wait a sec, the first article reminds me of a question I had for some medical experts. I don’t know if I mentioned Wal-mart, but I asked if the free market would work for medicine. They said it would not, the US had a deregulated system, and the government healthcare systems worked better than the current system. Most of the regulation, they claimed, was on whether physicians could/could not get paid, and on insurance companies/medicare/medicad. I tried posting the details on this once before, but no response.[^o)]
