[MD] French ingredient in the soup of sentiments

Arlo,
If people have the right (non SOM) mindset, then in a free market, they will tend to avoid problems.  If they don't, then IN SPITE OF the free market, they can have problems.
You've identified the SOM mindset as the problem--why tar the free market with the same brush?
