The missing piece is that no one is entitled to an unregulated market. Capital has the power to employ and in an unregulated environment, more power to determine wages than labour.

But in a modern democracy, labour has a different sort of power and I cannot think of a moral principle that says that labour should not distort the market using its power at the ballot box.

If a pro-unregulated market candidate can't win more votes than the guy who wants to support minimum wages, he doesn't deserve to win. And he doesn't deserve to enact his policies.

So an ancap can argue his point but if he can't win in the marketplace of ideas, then he doesn't win. Because that market is truly free.

That's fair.
