I would argue that being horriblely disadvantaged by not getting free money is not in fact a restriction on the market.

That's technically correct. It's not a restriction. But it's not a neutral for the market either.

Of course it’s not neutral, but we’re talking about wether or not it is comparable with unrestricted capitalism.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
