Yes, this is important. Free markets are just a tool. If there is a more effective tool then you should use that instead. I think it is particularly telling that one side is constantly engaging in corporate welfare when they talk about deregulation. The other side is exhausted from faceless corporations screwing them over. What's needed is more people who are on both sides and understand the whole picture. The idea that only one side is right is simply wrong. You need a wide variety of strategies.
There is this mindset that capitalism is always wrong when the mindset should be capitalism is not always right, which is a completely different perspective. However, I am really disappointed that people don't think about how to make the system work for themselves. Corporate abuse doesn't necessarily have to be the rule. The political environment could be shifted to favor workers instead and to a certain degree this would benefit everyone, not just one side.
