Sorry, David, you were reading too fast. You missed the point. I speak of a
marketplace*of* ideas themselves, a marketplace IN government systems.
But be that as it may, past reading in this group will show that I don't
agree that government oversight is *necessarily* necessary for a free market
to function. Certainly it's *one* way to organize, the most common way that
(semi free) markets are oversighted, yes, but not the only way. I commend
David Friedman's work on this to you for some reading.
