| | Free Market Economics |
 | | Free markets would be flourishing everywhere if human activity had not been infested with interest-bearing monopoly money issued by unelected powers for their own profit...which is the essence of capitalism and the banking system that supports it. | | | People often find it hard to grasp the concepts of free markets, capitalism, banking and capital. | | | The dogma on economies of scale is not a response to any real consumer demand; it is an excuse for supply-side dictatorship, driving prices down towards the abyss and not letting peasants and markets freely exist anywhere, while pseudo-economy grows like cancer. |

| | Free Market, by Murray N. Rothbard: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and Liberty | | | The free market and the free price system make goods from around the world available to consumers. | | | Not only is investment encouraged, but perhaps more important, the price system, and the profit-and-loss incentives of the market, guide capital investment and production into the proper paths. |

| | A market is a mechanism which allows people to trade, normally governed by the theory of supply and demand. | | | An economy which relies primarily on interactions between buyers and sellers to allocate resources is known as a market economy in contrast to a command economy. | | | A notable example of this is the international currency market. |

| | Encyclopedia article on Stock market [EncycloZine] |
| | The movements of the prices in a market or section of a market are captured in price indices called Stock Market Indices, of which there are many, e.g., the Standard and Poors Indices and the Financial Times Indices. | | | These days markets have generally become "institutionalized"; that is, buyers and sellers are largely institutions whether pension funds, insurance companies, mutual funds or banks. | | | In 1964 it was amended to apply also to companies traded in the over-the-counter market. |

| | Glossary: Non-market value |
| | A fundamental distinction in economics is between market and non-market goods and services. | | | Their economic value -how much people would be willing to pay for them- is not revealed in market prices. | | | Goods and Services in a free market economy are sold for prices that reflect a balance between the costs of production and what people are willing to pay. |

| | Maquiladora Market Economics |
| | By selling in the high-priced markets, prevailing "local" pricing levels, based on "local" manufacturing costs, establish an "umbrella" that protects the maquiladora's "foreign" (low-priced) advantage. | | | Their lever for obtaining this advantage is a glaring, gross and unarguable social disparity, based on a geographic anomaly, rather than economics. | | | Henry Ford demonstrated market coherency, when he decided to pay his factory workers what amounted to a "minimum wage" of five dollars a day, when two dollars a day generally represented an excellent wage for day labor in most American factories. |

| | Free market |
| | In the ideal free market, the law of supply and demand predominates, influencing prices toward an equilibrium that balances the demands for the products against the supplies. | | | At these equilibrium prices, the market distributes the products to the purchasers according to each purchaser's use (or utility) for each product and within the relative limits of each buyer's purchasing power. | | | The ideal free market does not explain particularly well the performance of many real markets such as the labor market, or financial markets. |

| | Market Power: Economics |
| | In economics, an externality is a cost or a benefit that accrues to some third party to a transaction. | | | But if governments make it illegal to make money from reserves when oil markets are squeezed, companies won't have the financial incentive to hold oil in reserve in the first place, and consumers will find themselves in even greater misery in the next supply shock. | | | Here are links to two previous posts, one here at Market Power on Washington State aluminum manufacturers and one over at The Sports Economist on the New Orleans VooDoo, on two examples of the shut down condition at work. |

| | Free-Market Environmentalism |
| | Free market capitalist economics is arguably the most powerful tool ever used by civilization. | | | But markets are actually very effective at allocating resources and in insuring sustainability--provided that those resources are marketed. | | | Unlike some environmentalists, free-market environmentalists believe that decentralized tools such as user fees, incentives, and markets will solve those problems better than centralized tools such as subsidies, bureaucracy, and regulation. |

| | Free Market Economics: Are We Winning? |
| | Skousen, a Mormon, does not identify value-free methodology as the defining issue of modern economics. | | | Free market ideas are far more prevalent on campus today than in 1975, yet taxes remain high, and regulation is worse. | | | Skousen's book – with the exception of the unreadable sections on Samuelson's graphs – is better in both style and content than any other introductory college textbook on the history of economic thought "from Smith to Friedman." It chronicles the long war between free market economists and interventionist economists. |

| | Putting A Price Tag On The Intangible |
| | In reaction to this dilemma, the Department of Applied Economics and Statistic has developed a course that focuses on the theory and methodology related to the valuation of such non-market goods, while address legitimate needs of the local community. | | | Many natural resources and environmental amenities are not traded in established markets, and thus do not have a “price tag” common to commercial goods and services. | | | The course addressed all aspects of non-market valuation: theoretical concepts, estimation issues, and lots of recent applications. |
