I wonder if we are confusing terms such as "an all-sided analysis" with

farmers but at the greatest level of abstraction they, like teachers,

Michael, I read the first few pages of your book, "The Pathology of the
U.S. Economy," and got the impression that while you see problems with the
market, you basically support it or take it for granted. I'm prepared to
be corrected, of course. Michael, do you think that "market competition"
