Agreed. One of the big problems in perception, I think, is the fact that, since a market economy can support a fairly substantial non-market fraction (socialized housing, roads, etc.) people imagine that you can just indefinitely extend the non-market system to encompass the whole economy. But you can't - and if you try, you end up not having enough of anything that you want. But it seems so simple, so people keep trying to do it.
