To be clear, I'm not trying to be for or against free markets, and you make valid points regarding the efficacy of relinquishing power to planning committees. However none of that pertains to my earlier comment. I'm simply making the observation that there can never be any ultimate solution, be it for economics, religion, or choice of wallpaper. There will always be edge cases, and there will always exist a better way, for any given definition of better (whether it be maximizing profits, freedom, well-being etc.). To claim otherwise is arrogant at best, and uninformed at worst.
