Eric, specifically what nation(s) have had a less restrictive form of capitalism than ours and have done better?
No one here (Supe included,
afaik) is arguing for communism. Blindly following "free market" economy is also disastrous. So the goal of economic policy is to find that happy medium between capitalism and socialism.
