Not necessarily ... we would still have a judicial system and the strong, high quality, honest corporations would flourish. Would some get hurt .. yes; nothing is perfect but the free market is the closest to perfection and it will promote more freedom and liberty that we have seen in 80+ years.

If I am selling a good or service in an unregulated laissez faire free market and that good or service is poor; I may take advantage of a few but the market (and my reputation) will correct that and I will be out of business. There will always be snake oil salesman void of any government intervention and regulation will weed most of them out

Assuming you can get into the market. Free markets also require knowledgeable consumers, and I maintain that it is not practical for us all to be experts at everything.

Are you advocating pure free market, or are we squabbling over how much and what we have is too much or incorrectly applied, or something else?
