    So it’s free market economics when it’s not actually a free market? Fascism is the illusion of a free market?

      Very close. To me, the “free market” has never and could never exist. Its human nature to tip the scales in your own favour, be it through bribery or coercion.

      The idea of a meritocratic market thats free of interference is capitalist-utopianism.
