    Interesting. Do they blame the Politburo and call them out as power hungry parasites, too?

    When the government actively seeks to to tilt things to favor some enterprises and hinder others then you don't have a free market. Free trade is essential to free markets. Again, consult Adam Smith.

    Your response was nothing but irrelevant and inaccurate idioms. It's not a cost of doing business or a fact of life. It's a cost created solely by third parties to the business activity or exchange of goods (i.e., governments) and it does not exist in nature or without government.
    what about the auto-bailout? what happened to your precious free market there?

    There is nothing sacred about an absolutely free market.
    Trump saving Carrier jobs does not distort the air conditioning market -all laws of supply and demand still function in the macro-economic sense.
    Auto bailout was a limited and timely intervention that saved an industry for America - else it's possible closing up plants and declaring bankruptcy realy could have shut down those companies forever.

    As a result US manufacturing didn't take as disastrous hit, and all aspects of a free market remain

    At least with air conditioning systems, it's not as obvious to the consumer where it was produced/assembled. Automobiles are literally stamped with "YO DUMBASS, THIS BIATCH WAS MADE IN JAPAN/KOREA/DOUCHELAND/SWEDEN. YOU COOL WITH THAT?!!?"

    GM kinda screwed itself, they off shored a bunch of Tier jobs, they basically made a lot of their customers unemployed and then wondered why their sales dropped.
