Suppose that you are a newspaper editor in the late 1800s. Write an editorial in which you support or oppose government involvement in the economy.

Government involvement in the economy as a solution to trade injustices.

Our country was created on the principle of economic liberalism, where the government cannot regulate our trade and its influence is limited to the protection of property rights. For years we have lived within this system and can we really say that it is beneficial?

The system of economic liberalism defends the idea that the trade itself will regulate itself, but this is only true for large companies that create monopolies, suppressing small companies, abusing workers and creating increasingly expensive products and services with qualities each smaller. This is due to the lack of government regularization, which creates captive and dissatisfied consumers.

Government participation in national trade is essential to maintain fair competition, support for small businesses and support for the rights of consumers and workers. This interference does not mean that there will be a lack of freedom, but an extension of the freedom and quality of services.

However, in order to implement this system in the country, it is necessary that there is first a political reform and that responsible politicians are chosen and that they efficiently understand the concepts that govern the government.
