    Do I have to assume this is all bullshit and yet again misrepresentations of how the free market handled it? In any case, we have the results on our hands right now
    The video does a pretty good job in its explanation of what happened. What it described is NOT free market. It described how private entities and government worked together. That is NOT free market. This is crony capitalism and in some cases corporatism or fascism. Free market advocacy is the furthest thing from crony capitalism and what the video describes.

    Free market advocates want the government prohibited from doing what Nixon did in creating Sallie Mae. We want the government to be prohibited from selling their institutions to private entities. We want the government to be prohibited from passing laws that benefit lobbyists. We want these things prohibited just like every American enjoys the prohibition of government to restrict speech, religion, etc..

    You and I are both against crony capitalism. Crony capitalism and free markets are opposites.
