Competitiveness != Free Market

If fact, if you want competitiveness you need to prevent a fully free market.

No matter how many times this is explained, people still continue to make this incredibly simple and enormously consequential mistake.

If we're taking the reductionist view that economic output is the only important measure of society, then people need to understand that means maximizing competition not maximizing a free market.

I've seen no indication of that.
