Zorluk: KolayFree Market Economy (Capitalism)

In a pure free market economic system, the primary mechanism that determines the allocation of resources and the prices of goods is central government planning.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

False. In a free market economy, resource allocation and price determination are driven by market forces (demand and supply) via the price mechanism, not by central government planning.
The statement is false because free market economies (capitalism) rely on the decentralized interaction of buyers and sellers using the price mechanism to allocate resources. Central government planning is instead the hallmark of a command or socialist economic system.
