Free market is healthy.
If that was true, then why doesnt our govt open up our borders so that overseas doctors, lawyers, dentists, bankers, accountants, tradesmen, and just for fun politicians, ( ie those with relatively protected incomes ) can come here and practice "freely and without restriction" at a much lower price than we get charged currently.
Sure we may get some dodgy ones, but thats the "caveat emptor" risk for anything in a "free market".
I find it intriguing that some parts of our society ( retailers ) are forced to compete in an absolute free for all "via the net"
and others are protected.

That said
Oz is still a better place to live than most,
