constant admonishing ideal PURITY of the “free”-market kind of capitalism actually
an homage to ANARCHY and really quite the OPPOSITE of a genuine fiscal-conservativism?
I mean isn’t financial/conservatism really supposed to be about exercising sensible studious restraint in all things concerning money, resources,etc ?
I mean like why is it that /American/ conservatism in particular, wants to control everyone’s life in the social dimension these past few decades, and when it comes to money, influence on businesses, etc – dimension everything is three sheets to the wind… let havoc must roam about freely. Screw the planet, but when it comes to economy the beast must set itself right magically. The “natural” balance must be preserved.
Why don’t I see anything “natural order” looking into this kind of extreme market purity philosophy at all. It’s damn lazy if you ask me.
Am I somehow just not looking hard enough?

Capitalism / God ?
Well at least that much makes sense. People love to hurredly scamper half-frenzied into obscure endless circles whenever you invite them to "speak economics".

ACTUALLY, I'm still reading. I think I can see the point's made. It's hard for me to follow much "economy" detail all at once. I have to try to read that kind of stuff slowly.

also, perhaps I really mean
"free"-ENTERPRISE and not exactly "free market". I don't know.
