If a mixed economy was not an option, would you rather live in a strictly free market (free enterprise) economy or a command economy?

Answer 1

Assuming you also mean no government regulation by no mixed economy, I'd rather live in a command economy. The stability and public accountability of a command economy is the safer route in the long term compared to the potential anarchy and cutthroat nature of a completely free market. Even with it's potential abuses and limited variety, a command economy still answers on some level to public approval or disapproval. A strictly free market is like various gangs offering their own goods and services.
