You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Nobody seems to agree on what a free market is.

My definition is pretty simple, but it may surprise you if you think regulations go against a free market. To me, a free market is one that is transparent and has low transaction costs. And I think this is only possible if it is well regulated by an authority or government.
