In economics, a free market is an idealized system in which the prices for goods and services are determined by the open market and by consumers. In a free market the laws and forces of supply and demand are free from any intervention by a government, by a price-setting monopoly, or by other authority.

I find that a very good definition, from Wiki.
There are others, but I find that the best one.

The other day clear failures of the free market were present - JG A - 11/23 12:16:29
     First, there is no such thing as a "real" solution if - GA Tiger MU - 11/23 13:31:26
     You didn't provide any examples - pickle MU - 11/23 12:38:01
          I provided 14 and if always does - JG A - 11/23 12:39:20
               You didn't. You provided what you think are examples - pickle MU - 11/23 12:43:30
                    LOL never except already in this very thread - JG A - 11/23 12:44:34
                         Not really. It was a bit of circular logic - pickle MU - 11/23 12:50:57
                              LOL I axed for your bizarre definition - JG A - 11/23 12:53:11
                                   I've stated it many times - pickle MU - 11/23 12:55:38
                                        See thats exactly why the free market so often fails - JG A - 11/23 13:02:17
                                             How do external parties have any rights in a two party - TigerMatt MU - 11/23 13:04:01
                                                  When it infringes, of course - JG A - 11/23 13:07:29
                                                       Then that's not the free market - pickle MU - 11/23 13:15:09
                                                       Like government interfering with property rights in a - TigerMatt MU - 11/23 13:09:12
                                             No, tha's your ignorance and authoritarian desires (nm) - pickle MU - 11/23 13:03:41
                                                  Nope , just the realities of any society - JG A - 11/23 13:08:04
                                                       No, it'a your ignorance and authoritarianism - pickle MU - 11/23 13:13:32
                                                       So authoritarianism is ok because it is a reality of society - TigerMatt MU - 11/23 13:09:59
                                                            Its doubtful - JG A - 11/23 13:12:20
                                                                 You are calling for authoritarianism, not me.(nm) - TigerMatt MU - 11/23 13:13:30
                         Not once. And that underscores your ignorance.(nm) - TigerMatt MU - 11/23 12:47:26
                              LOL like shooting ideologues in a barrel - JG A - 11/23 12:48:33
                                   So what free market are you talking about?(nm) - TigerMatt MU - 11/23 12:51:51
     What is this free market failure that you speak of? - Fourth and Long MU - 11/23 12:24:17
          I gave 14 examples, here are a few more - JG A - 11/23 12:25:32
               None of those are examples (nm) - pickle MU - 11/23 12:57:55
     what free market are you referring to? (nm) - 90Tiger MU - 11/23 12:20:06
          not surprisingly - JG A - 11/23 12:24:22
               So, all's well now? (nm) - ummmm MU - 11/23 12:42:30
                    As I have said for lo these many years - JG A - 11/23 12:46:15
                         Who should be in charge of the balancing act?(nm) - ummmm MU - 11/23 13:01:17
                              At least in theory - JG A - 11/23 13:03:30
                                   How? (nm) - ummmm MU - 11/23 13:06:49
                                        elections - JG A - 11/23 13:13:17
                                             That seems contradictory to what you just said - pickle MU - 11/23 13:24:30
                                                  Nope - JG A - 11/23 13:25:43
                                                       It's your argument (nm) - pickle MU - 11/23 13:26:25
                                             We have elections. All is well then? (nm) - ummmm MU - 11/23 13:21:32
                                                  Nope - JG A - 11/23 13:23:54
                                                       Can you just tell me exactly how it should look - ummmm MU - 11/23 13:43:04
                                                       So not elections. Make up your mind (nm) - pickle MU - 11/23 13:25:48
                                                            Theory is not reality - JG A - 11/23 13:26:30

                                                                      We have elections - JG A - 11/23 17:29:30
