    Thanks for explaining what a market is.

    Its a good job we have such a thing to tell us that what we really want is to work most of our lives, mostly for someone else benefit, to endlessly produce things to a point that it destroys our planets ability to sustain life. Without such a devine oracle, we might have to ask difficult questions about what we’re doing and for whos benefit.

    Its a good to know there must be such a high demand for inequality too. Without the justification of the invisible hand, we might have to think about morals and other gross stuff.

    But, as you make such a good point about not being able to get rid of something and just making a black market for it, as justificationfor keeping the market in its current state

    Well, that and slavery of course. If the argument works for one it works for both.
