It is surprising to see these sentiments on a site ostensibly for entrepreneurs and builders.

If you'd prefer a centrally planned and regulated economy, that is a different discussion. From my side, I believe you should enjoy your views and the living situation which accompanies it.

Not interested in arguing the virtues of either approach here. Taking exception with the inaccurate characterizations is as far as I go. If you believe an economy driven by central bank policy is a free-market, I'm not sure there's much more we can say here.

Ummmm... You live in a regulated economy.

Even the US economy is a capitalist system with government intervention.
