Default Re: OT: Our Economy (US)
What are the real benifits of free open markets?

Smart capable people are allowed to succeed. Their heirs are allowed to lose it. This system benifits the most people via trickle down. It also avoids the problem of frustrated smart capable people leading revolts.

Yes, there can be too much success. Monopolies, pollution, and resource exhaustion violate the "We the People, By the People, For the People" context of the constitution.
