A regulated market.

A free market is not a static thing. We don’t have a 100% free market right now. It’s a gradient.

Imo, free markets can get quite ugly without enough regulation. For instance, right now many hospitals are shutting down their pediatric wards because they just aren’t as profitable as adult medicine.

Our healthcare system in general is a good example.

Aside from that, wealth inequality is just getting bad. Sure, we can let it get worse until it leads to a revolution where a ton of people die and cities burn, but we could also just tax the ultra rich or even have a maximum wage like we did pre-Reagan.

Anyway, that’s what I mean.
