I'm going to link this the next time some idiot libertarian is ranting about how Big Government is the cause of all our problems, and the Free Market is the solution. Because let's face it, most people would kill you for your money. The proof is in your lipstick.

The Free Market may eventually respond to user demand. But then users have to be self educated and aware and organized. Even that may not be enough. The financial crisis showed that business is not focused on long term success but short term profit.
