Neither the credit collapse nor the nationalization programs ("Bail Out") have ANYTHING to do with free markets, except to the extent they are designed to kill them.
Fannie Mae
Freddie Mac
Community Reinvestment Act
ACORN
Bail Out
... fascism isn't any less so under folksy sounding names.
We already had this conversation on another of my videos. Proselytize your depraved socialist idiocies elsewhere.

...But ME, I need the nanny-state to protect me from market discipline so that I'll be able to rant and rave about the marvels of the "Free Market," while I'm getting properly subsidized and funded by everyone else through the nanny-state. And also, this has to be risk free. So I'm perfectly willing to make profits, but I don't want to take risks. If anything goes wrong, YOU bail me out.

For those interested in the REAL WORLD, a look at the ACTUAL history suggests a modification of Fee Market theory. To what we might call Really Existing Free Market theory. That is the one that's actually applied, not talked about.
And the principle of Really Existing Free Market theory is:
Free Markets are fine for YOU, but NOT for me. So YOU, whoever you may be, YOU have to learn responsibility, and be subjected to market discipline, it's good for your character, it's tough love, etc.

"...neo-liberalism leads to..."
Socialists view liberty as the problem, and gov't as the solution. They tend to prophesy an Armageddon lest their audience submit to their central planning dictates.
Either they are genuinely ignorant of their rich history of such failures, lacking the capacity to learn, or they are willfully deceptive. Either way, socialists are the carbon residue of politics. No wonder they're obsessed with the stuff.
-
Economic neo-liberalism leads to totalitarianism. That's because neo-liberal economic policies create a class of people who are useless to the creation of wealth, and another much larger class of people who are dissatisfied with the meager fruits of their hard labor.
In this case, the system has to get rid of the useless poor class of people through incarceration, and control the dissatisfied masses through fear & propaganda..
That is why it's a tyranny and not freedom!

Liberty isn't "imposed", and that to produce and trade goods and services is the exact opposite of "tyranny".
Taking one's earnings and then handing them back some residual is a "benefit" only in the fantasies of those whose minds were stolen by their pimp-owners -- whores and socialist dupes.
Evidently, socialist mysticism is based on the notion that their rhetoric possesses some magical power to bend reality to their totalitarian whims.

You want to know what's really "merciless" ?
Corporate tyranny, which is really what "free market" policies impose on the American people.
The money is taken from everybody, and everybody is eleigible to benefit from those social services provided. Just look at education. If education were properly funded, everyone could benefit. Taxes aren't about wealth redistribution. Taxes are about reducing the impact of the corporate tyranny.

"Social services ...give back ... the fruits of his/her taxes paid..."
Is your ignorance genuine or are you just faking it to cover for your politics of wealth redistribution?
The money is taken from those who earn it and given to those who don't.
-
Social services don't promote peasant lifestyles. They simply give back to the American citizen the fruits of his/her taxes paid to the government. Unlike, so-called "free market" policies, which socialize cost, socialize risk, and privatize profit. Profitable enterprises do not give back enough to grow the enterprise for the benefit of all. The benefit disproportionately goes more to those who already have money, while doing so at the expense of the less fortunate. Enterprise blackmails gov't.
-
Absent corporations, America is Liberia.
Merciless policies that expand government authority, and promote peasant lifestyles, which ensure the poor are trapped for endless generations in ghettos isn't "infrastructure", nor is the Ponzi scheme of Social Security a "service".
Unlike profitable enterprises -- those who give back enough to grow the enterprise for the benefit of all -- the non-profit sort suck out every last penny and hide behind their tax loopholes.
If the democrates raise taxes on "business", how are they going to lure businesses back to the US and "bring the jobs back here"?
WTF!
