Such as when Walmart wants to put a grocery store in a Boston "food desert," but runs into union opposition.
Then there's the level on which political back-scratching decides much of how it turns out. In the case of Boston's Dudley Square area, the result is city officials deciding what constitutes "unfair competition," even as area residents have to pay higher prices at their existing options than they would at the proposed-and-shot-down Walmart.
Economic freedom is not only right, it's so much simpler.
