I strongly disagree. Regulation and a free market can definitely coincide, we don't have to be so absolutist in our economic opinion. Similarly, a nation having welfare and universal healthcare doesn't mean they're communist. It's not one-or-the-other. Europe has a much freer market than the US, and also has much stronger protections on personal privacy, a la GDPR. > Individuals are not allowed to do whatever gets them profit, they have to operate within ethical constraints, to advocate businesses not operate in an ethical context and to leave everything to markets is advocating lawlessness.

The US market is not very "free" at all - it is heavily regulated, with the government propping up unethical, failing, non-innovative corporations.
