   It is correct I think, that the free market is not hindered in any way by   
   the government, if we are talking about pure "free market" but at the same   
   time, it is not controlled by anything except those things Don mentioned.   
   Thus human dignity, respect, and morality never come into play at all.   
   Neither does health and safety. What value judgment would discard a working   
   yet unsafe factory that can easily replace that cheap labor, for something   
   that protects and values human lives, at the expense of profit? Again I   
   think the answer is somewhere in between.
