The Market Cannot Solve Everything

Markets can be excessive, that is why regulation is needed.  Think banking & securities here.

Markets take advantage of freely available resources, that is why regulation is needed.  Think the environment here.

And lack of Universal Health Insurance harms the economy because workers in other countries don't require health insurance from their employer.

And it leads to other sub-optimal outcomes as this Bloomberg columnist states so well.
