IMO, there should be a presumption of no intervention except to combat specific problems (such as those listed by BG and SC).

The reason I want a market-driven economy, is because it maximizes the production for all. Sure, outsourcing jobs overseas sucks for those who lost their jobs, but the result is that the products are cheaper for everybody.
The main issue that complicates things for me in this debate is that there is a big difference between a global free market and an American free market.

Nowadays, we're encountering new issues for which there is little precedent (global megacorportations, etc).
