Mike Pence got a new rabbit and called him "Marlon Bundo"...more proof that he's a dumbass!

The unfettered Free Market has left the US 20 trillion in debt,

Nope. The annual $1.2 trillion in tax expenditures (government gifts) to special interests has left the US $20 trillion in debt. Through tax expenditures, the government has enacted a program of behavioral controls which are the EXACT OPPOSITE of a free market.

I doubt any of you yahoos even knows what a "free" market is. Yes, "free" is in the name, but it does not mean free from government regulations. Can anyone proof me wrong and tell me what a free market is suppose to be free of?

The concept of an unfettered marketplace was doomed early on in the first human uses of arithmetic in economies. I freely loan you 3 bags of barley. In return you repay me four. I freely loan someone else six bags of barley, and get repaid six. I made 3 bags of edible barley doing nothing more than eating, and sleeping off the barley(?). This is the famous reaper concept: Where nothing has been sown. That would be one person's viewpoint. The other person would say that fermented barley juice was being invented(?)! Smoking leaves would be later(?).

Fortunately for humans, all kinds of critters could also live off the barley. Eventually, some of the critters could be tamed, and be fed the barely in return for pulling granny around, seated on a plow. Social Security and pensions clearly happened. Jollies for granny were invented(?) Even the elderly had useful work to do(?)!

The original barley rates, first interest rates, (usury), were arithmetic, and civilizing: Neither bad nor good. Silver rates eventually happened, and money. Jesus lampooned all that in the New Testament. In Matthew 25:14-30, the servant with the more talents of silver did better. The servant with the fewer talents got thrown out of the household. End of free market, and the one servant. Next up the ladder got the other two talents. A remedy was proposed in Matthew 20:1-16. Granny could sit on the plow for an hour, end of day, tending to the infants. The male adults could work all the day--maybe dragging around the plow, latter to be hitched to the lazy critters. The older children could work at chores for more or less hours all day long. Everyone got their daily living allowance at end of day. They could go to the market, freely buy things, and Roman Circus treats and entertainments, bathe, and grab kitty kats.

Parts of Nevada have market economies even now(?)! Even quick weddings, however, are not free. Choices are not made freely. They are coerced by human practices of arithmetic. Usually, in history, there are no remedies for the arithmetic abuses. Famously, the Keynesian Disaster of the recent financial crisis happened--costing over $1.0 tril. in a matter of months. The set-up was first created by famous Denigrator, of All of Humanity, Moses of the Education of the Imperial Household of Egypt. That was a human subjugating branch. Moses would claim a Chosen People, granted permission to charge everyone in a separate nation, usury. See Matthew 25:14-30, for an example of what happens to everybody! Usury was not allowed in Israel. End of Civilizing uses of arithmetic became the Deity Atrocity of Moses.

The Moses Atrocity would famously make the twentieth century a nightmare. The recent foreclosure crisis maybe set up another. President Obama famously knew nothing about economics, and had no interest or stake in an economic agenda. Two years were spent assembling ACA. Six years were spent repealing ACA.

(Many shoot arrows into air! They come to earth, they no not where. Many now point to Trump of New Hair! Maybe the damn things are somewhere in there(?)!)

External controls.

A free market is one where the seller and buyer operate of their own free will. No market is ever 100 percent free just like there is no real example of a complete socialist economy.

Nope. Sometimes controls are necessary in order to prevent a certain something from popping up that a free market is suppose to be free of. Although, I have to admit the free will thing brings up some interesting questions. How much free will are you using when you roll up to the emergency room in the back of an ambulance.

Not relevant to the point.

Weather or not controls are necessary is beside the point of what a free market is. Notice that I already addressed your comments when I mentioned that no market is ever 100 percent free.

There is ALWAYS a difference in theory and actual implementation. That is just a fact of life.

OK. Rather or not controls are necessary has little to do with the definition of a free market. But no, you have not answered my question, a market is free if the market is free of what? And regardless of rather any market is 100 percent free from the answer to my question, although I can think of several markets that could come very close, there is still a very formal definition of what a free market is free of. I am just pretty damn confident nobody knows what that is.

Capitalism was built on slavery and persists through the slavery of the workplace compelled by the wage system.
