I'd say you are in something of a conundrum. You say you deplore intervention into the free market but then you continually vote in people who demand that it be done.

"They know where they want to go but the can't certain what to do to get there, so they try a little bit of many things and go with what seems to work." Unfortunately, lessons from nonlinear dynamical systems are that the basin of attraction to "where they want to go" may be very convoluted. Sometimes a small perturbation may cross the line of basin boundary, and the system may start to fall into entirely different attractor. Therefore, to get into right basin where the system can evolve to the desired state "naturally" without any further intervention, one may need to make a move into non-obvious, orthogonal direction. This can be done only with some understanding of multidimensional topology of the system, so some serious modeling is a must. Regards, - Ali
