Dudes, the market still exists, and it's still a powerful force - and it's kind of ironic to attack EW's points as unsympathetic and pie-in-the-sky, then basically deny peoples' abilities to act rationally in their own best interests out of hand.

Guess what guys? If we stop making decisions for people, they might just do the right thing themselves (or, more correctly, they'll be forced to)! Now, not all - of course not. But when you're not forced to act rationally, more will tend to act irrationally because they can.

It's not dispassionate, it's a fundamental belief in the ability of man and market to act rationally.
