One of the most common criticisms of free markets is that wealth "trickles down" from the top.
Yet many of the same people advocate a system where wealth is first taken from millions of individuals, concentrated in the hands of the largest organization with the legal power to tax and spend, and then redistributed back to society.
If you're skeptical that resources flow efficiently through decentralized markets, why would you assume they'll flow more efficiently through a centralized bureaucracy?
Regardless of where you stand politically, that's a question worth thinking about.
Which system do you trust more to allocate resources: millions of voluntary decisions or a handful of political ones?
