That was a tortuous post of yours. Actually, there is a real danger to allowing our economy to go laissez faire. The current GOP's mantra of no government is good government is too libertarian. Government has a role to play. Smaller is better, but business needs to be regulated to provide a level playing field and to allow for competition. Where no competition exists, the government needs to step in. In strategic industries, it also makes sense for the government to step in to provide regulation, competition, and incubation of businesses when necessary. That is what the finest minds in economic history tell us.
