Incomplete introduction[edit]

Just wanted to bring this to the attention of the article maintainers: In the current state (June 2019), the article has an incomplete sentence in the introduction. The 3rd paragraph of the introduction ends in an unfinished sentence which itself only reads "It is this" Someone seems to have had plans for further explanations that were not completed or were improperly abandoned. Would be great if someone could investigate. Thx! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.224.108.249 (talk) 06:48, 15 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sanctions - do they set the "free" of the free market aside?[edit]

Although sanctions (on Russia) have been applied for about 10 years they have recently been applied more and more. Sanctions interfere with free market practices because companies must pick their suppliers and customers from a list of allowed business partners, not select by price. I wonder where the threshold is which disturbs the free market so much that the "free" is set aside. E.G. The "crippling" sanctions are obviously designed to punish the Russian people but in the process they disturb the free market. This should probably be discussed one day. 2001:8003:A070:7F00:B595:E707:A408:A278 (talk) 06:26, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

what is the allocation of resources and price influence in mixed economy 41.114.141.73 (talk) 18:34, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No mention of a medium of exchange[edit]

There is no reference to a medium of exchange in this entire article. It seems to me that having a medium (USD, £, gold) is an important part of a market, and of setting prices by supply and demand. Adding information on a medium of exchange will likely effect most paragraphs in this article. Any thoughts? AbrahamWright (talk) 16:52, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
