The term free market"is really a euphemism. What the far right actually means by this term is "lawless market." In a lawless market, entrepreneurs can get away with privatizing the benefits of the market (profits), while socializing its costs (like pollution).

  • -- Steve Kangas 史蒂夫康格斯

“自由市场”一词实际上是一种委婉说法。极右派这个词的真正含义是“无法无天的市场”。在一个无法无天的市场中,企业家可以将市场的利益(利润)私有化,而将其成本(如污染)社会化。
