That's just utopian theory, having very little bearing on reality.
If you want to know just how dependent on government 'the market' is, just consider the way the state was forced to bailout the banks, and economies in general, during the recent fiasco.
Maybe so, but it's still the most useful point from which to start any understanding of the market. If you don't start with the actual market forces then you're bound to end up with your cause and effect all mixed up.
I agree that the bailout was a massive market failure.
Arguably, the government should have let things just play out.
I can see what you're getting at but you are repeatedly overstating your case.
The market and the government are both independent and interdependent.
f you ascribe all power to one or the other you miss the bigger picture and found your analysis on a distorted premise.
