As pvn hinted at in his last post, the free market is absolutely necessary to allocate scarce resources. Of course everyone would love $1 ponies, but there simply aren't enough ponies in the world. Humans thus chose the free exchange of goods and services as a way to make up for the limited supply of resources.

pvn,

Do me a favor for a day. Next time you go to the supermarket, offer to pay less than the prices charged. Let me know what happens.

This would make sense if there was only one master supermarket that everyone had to shop at it. It's really quite ironic that a statist would use this argument. As we know and fortunately for pvn, he has several supermarkets to choose from and he goes to the one he thinks has the best combination of quality products and cheap prices.
