The point isn't to have no rules... It's to ensure the ability to compete... right now certain protectionist rules only serve to help incumbents, and are only aided by lobbying efforts.

To countermand that, what is needed are policies to ensure competition. Compulsory patent licensing for starters, and a dual-source requirement for prescription medications paid for by the state would be another.

What we have had, and continue to have is not a free market, and it doesn't serve you to have it continue as such.
