The isolated interference brought about a condition which, from the point of view of the government,

is even more undesirable than the previous state of affairs which the government wanted to alter.

And as the government goes farther and farther, it will finally arrive at a point where all prices,

all wage rates, all interest rates, in short, everything in the whole economic system,

is determined by the government. And this, clearly, is socialism.
