Economics is only a fraction of life's interactions. Marketplaces are not just economic constructs. We have a marketplace of ideas, a marketplace of interests, a marketplace of values, a marketplace of styles, etc. In the marketplace, what gains supporters survives; what doesn't becomes either niche or extinct. Lots of individuals making their own choices drive the outcome, not central planning. Kinda like that fly-by-night notion, democracy... <g> libertarian methods work best under sparser populations I don't think so. I think they work better where there are lots of people just as surveys don't work well without enough people to get a proper curve. In small populations, direction can go askew if there is a concentration of oddballs. Large populations head for the mean.
