Market

A market is an abstraction which represents the sum total of all production for exchange, and all market exchange within a system. Capitalism is founded upon production for exchange, and so is characterized in part by the presence of a market. A "free" market is a mythological concept of a market devoid of state interference, although the majority of the bourgeoise and right-wingers support government intervention in terms of Bailouts, Subsidies, IP Protection, etc. while still claiming to be proponents of "Free Market Capitalism".
