MARKETS OF THE VIA-NEGATIVA

Markets don’t do much more than suppress the network of rents that exist wherever market competition does not. As always, markets are a via-negativa good. Just as law is a via-negativa good. Just as falsification is a via negativa good.

We never know the truth, the good, the moral, the just, we only know their opposites.

Why? Our knowledge is forever incomplete.
