Consider this:
a) literally zero government intervention.
b) some government intervention, to keep the market competitive, as described above.
c) total government control.
What do you, jlcoff, call a)? If I understood you correctly, it's "free market". What would you call b) and c) then?
There is no doubt that a) is strictly incompatible with any government regulation or intervention. Label those two concepts however you want, but I don't think anyone argumented against that.
A lot of people seem to use "Free Market" for b) instead of a) and that is confusing.
I agree with Diesel555's idea of calling b) a "competitive market" as it avoids a labeling confusion between a) and b).
