Free market

The free market is a theoretical economy in which there is no interference by the government to regulate the market in any way. This would theoretically result in allowing businesses to emit as much pollution and toxic waste as they wanted, gain complete monopolistic control of any sector of the economy they wished, and avoid paying any taxes altogether. This is the conservative's wet dream, unless you consider that the government would have to stop subsidizing numerous industries owned by conservatives. So when conservatives and libertarians go on till their blue in the face about the wonders of a free market, don't believe them. They actually want the government to help business at the expense of the consumer and taxpayer. The dirty truth is, without government business would not get free roads, cheap water and power, an educated workforce, or a safe and secure environment in which to do business.
