This train of thought always strikes me as similar to religious thoughts. "You think what the market does is unfair? But it is the market it can by definition not produce any unfair results."

Any argument about fairness is swiped away by explaining that this is just how the market works. But the chance that the market always produces fair results is very unlikely unless you come in with the presupposition that the market is by definition always fair. I guess if this is your only moral belief this starts to make sense.

EDIT: Use quotes to clarify that a statement does not express my personal opinion.

Do you believe we have a free market?

No, I think the free market is an ideal system, a model. A bit like a harmonic oscillator in physics. The reality is more complicated.
